George Yeomans Pocock (March 23, 1891 – March 19, 1976) was a leading designer and builder of racing shells in the 20th Century. Pocock-built shells began to win U.S. Intercollegiate Rowing Association championships in 1923. He achieved international recognition by providing the eight-oared racing shells which won gold medals in the 1936 Summer Olympics with a crew from the University of Washington, and again in 1948 and 1952. In this era, nearly every collegiate and sport rowing program in America used wooden shells and oars built by Pocock. Beyond his achievements as a boatbuilder, his influence, promotion and philosophy of rowing have inspired countless oarsmen and coaches.
