  • TED ELDRED the Australian Who Changed the World of Diving by Des Williams (Historical Diving Society Australia-Pacific)
    TED ELDRED The Australian Who Changed the World of Diving By Des Williams (Historical Diving Society Australia-Pacific) Ted Eldred was born in Victoria on the 16th of December 1920, he was an only child. His parents were hoteliers at the coastal township of Sorrento, south of Melbourne, where his parents ran a large guest house, whilst Ted went to boarding school in Melbourne. He would return to Sorrento each weekend aboard one of the beautiful paddle steamers, which plied Port Phillip in those days. It is believed Ted developed his mechanical interest during the trips on those steamers, where he had forged a friendship with the engineers, who would allow him to travel in the engine room. With the sea all around him at Sorrento, Ted’s passion for the sea developed and he spent much of his time snorkeling, swimming and even learning salvaging techniques, breath- hold diving to raise sunken fishing boats after storms. He used goggles similar to those worn by the Amah divers of Japan. At age 16, Ted began a Fitting and Turning apprenticeship in Melbourne and also developed an interest in water polo. When World War Two began in 1939, he tried to enlist in the Australian Navy, but was barred due to his skills in what was considered an “essential service” industry, as he had just completed his apprenticeship in Production Tooling. So, during the War years, Ted was put in charge of a staff of 200 women manufacturing radar, electronic and medical equipment parts. It was during these War years that he also studied engineering and metallurgy, emerging after the War with two trades and an Engineering diploma.
