Victoria led the race from the start winning by 3 lengths
from NSW and a further two lengths back to Queensland. Until
the last half mile when NSW broke away from Queensland, it
was a tight race for second place.
The NSW crew was affected by withdrawals with the Sydney Rowing
Club demanding that they be selected without change. The Sydney
Rowing Club oarsmen withdrew and only after considerable pressure,
Cater of Sydney agreed to row.
