Jump to
Charles R. Harding (aka ‘Wag’ Harding) (c.1866 – ?) was an English professional single sculler who became the Champion of England and was a contender for the World Sculling Championship. He was born in London circa 1866 and his occupation was that of a waterman. Like many of the professional English scullers, he had won the Doggett's Coat and Badge (in 1888), but at and he was not regarded as one of the heavy men. He made a name for himself in 1883, when he, at 16 years old, won the Chelsea Coat and Badge, and a year later, the Putney Coat and Badge. He was reported in the mid-1890s that “he pulls a beautiful even stroke, gets well over his sculls, while his leg-work is greatly admired.”
