He competed with his boat ''Camille'' in ''Class A'' (the open class) at the 1908 Summer Olympics in London, where he won the gold medal.〔("1908 Summer Olympics – London, United Kingdom – Motor Boating" ) ''databaseOlympics.com'' (Retrieved on April 6, 2008)〕〔Floyd Conner, "The Olympics' most wanted : The top 10 book of gold medal gaffes, improbable triumphs, and other oddities" (Brassey's, Inc, 2001) (1-57488-413-1 )〕 He finished the forty nautical miles in 2:26:53, and ''Camille'' was the only boat to finish that race.
