David Drury Macklin Шаблон:Post-nominals (1 September 1928 – 29 March 2015) was a British international rower.
Macklin was born in Cambridge in 1928.[1] He attended St John's College, Cambridge, and rowed for Cambridge in the 1951 Boat Race in which Oxford sank. This forced a re-row which Cambridge won by 12 lengths.[2] He and his college crew also won the Grand Challenge Cup at Henley in 1951, the last college crew to do so.[3]
Macklin went on to row for Leander Club, winning the Grand Challenge Cup in 1952 and 1953.[3] He was selected for Great Britain and rowed in the men's eight at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki, being part of the crew who finished fourth.[4]
Macklin became the chief executive of Devon County Council. He died on 29 March 2015, survived by his wife Janet and their four children.[3] In the 2016 Boat Races, Macklin's granddaughter Fiona Macklin rowed for Cambridge.[2]
