The eights race was a great battle between Tasmania and Victoria.
These crews led the rest of the field by a length after only
1⁄4 mile. Victoria moved through to take the lead but
Tasmania fought throughout the race. It is noted that the sculling
race was conducted from Abbotsford to Ryde and the eights race
the other way.
