Dr David Watson
Obituary of David George Martin Watson, DEng, BSc. CEng, FRINA, FIMarE, FIESS, a distinguished member of that post-war generation of outstanding Scottish naval architects, who further enhanced the Clyde's reputation for designing and building great ships.As befits a son and grandson of the manse, he was a committed member of the Church of Scotland and served as an elder for almost 50 years, first at Hyndland Parish Church, Glasgow, then at St Brides and finally at the West Kirk, Helensburgh, where he was a regular attender and a diligent fabric convener.
He also actively supported several favourite charities, including the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and the Glasgow Lodging House Mission, which his grandfather was instrumental in setting up.
