- Bob_Oatley abstract "Robert Ian \"Bob\" Oatley AO, BEM (11 June 1928 – 10 January 2016) was an Australian businessman, winemaker, yachtsman and philantropist. He was perhaps best known for owning the eight-time Sydney-Hobart-winning yacht Wild Oats XI. He bought Hamilton Island, Queensland in 2003 for $200 million, he also owned retirement homes and a villa in Sardinia, Italy. Bob also established the Rosemount winery, in the Hunter Valley in 1969.Robert Oatley was born in the Sydney suburb of Mosman in 1928, the son of Geoffrey Oatley and Isabel \"Jean\" nee Brown [New South Wales Index of Births, Deaths and Marriages]. His birth notice appeared in a local Sydney newspaper. Bob was a descendant [a great, great grandson] of British clock maker James Oatley. and a great grandson of James Oatley, Lord Mayor of Sydney and a Member of the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales.Robert's mother, Jean, died from melanoma 13 months after his birth , leaving Robert as an only child [Death Certificate]. Robert's father was employed in the wool industry, which meant spending much of his working life was spent travelling in rural New South Wales. Consequently, Robert was brought up by his mother's sister, Muriel, the wife of Duncan A Cameron. Robert attended the local Mosman Primary School [Good Weekend, Sydney Morning Herald, on September 1 2007; New South Wales Marriage Index] . Robert married twice. He married Rosemary Nell Bray on 12 April 1951 in St Clement's Church, Mosman (marriage certificate, New South Wales marriage index, Sydney Morning Herald). This marriage ended in divorce on 2 December 1982, about seven weeks before Rosemary died (marriage certificate, death notice, Ryerson Index). Robert and Rosemary had three children, Andrew \"Sandy\", Ian, and Rosalind. Two of Robert's grandchildren, cousins Kristy Lambert and Lyndal Oatley, are Olympic equestrians-see Wikipedia: equestrian Lyndal Oatley.Robert later married Valerie. Robert's first employment, in about 1943 and still wartime, was by the firm, Colyer Watson, owned by Rupert Alexander Colyer. His tasks included delivering letters by hand to other local businesses and to fill the company's inkwells. Later, as Bob gained expertise and business acumen, he accompanied his employer on business trips. The Colyer Watson firm also owned a coffee division on Papua New Guinea; a division which owed money to the parent company. The task of recovering the money was handed over to the increasingly competent business employee, Robert Oatley. Thus, Bob started out as a businessman in the 1950s trading coffee and cocoa beans from Papua New Guinea. In his early 40s Bob bought this Papuan Division of the Colyer company from his employer and changed its name to Angco. Bob then expanded his company both in Papua and by establishing trade with northern hemisphere countries, an enterprise which earned him a British Empire Medal about fifteen years later, in 1985. Soon afterwards he sold the last of his Papuan businesses. After Papua gained independence in the mid-1970s Bob Oatley had begun to sell off his business holdings there. Bob had also established his successful Rosemount winery, in the Hunter Valle, started in 1968. Actually, the name was not original for the district. The original Rosemount winery was established in the same area, near Denman, during the 1860s. Bob's Rosemount winery was sold in 2001. But Bob and his family had established other wineries, including, in the early 1990s, another winery, still in the Hunter Valley region near Mudgee, with the company name Oatley Wines and label Wild Oats, [Good Weekend, Sydney Morning Herald,September 1 and September 22 2007]. He died from a lung infection on 10 January 2016, aged 87.".
