Notes

• Assume 2 divisions with 12 boats in Div I
• Notes from Sherwood

  First day: New II were given a place though they were not on. In consequence of this, the last four boats had to move up a place at the last moment, and Merton did not get their bung, so were disqualified though they bumped St Catharine's

  Winds, rain and floods. Crews on upper river.
