The eights race was keenly contested between NSW and VIC with NSW the victors. The first three crews were in essence in one race and a big gap back to the others in another race. The Victorians allowed only 4 weeks to get their crew together and vowed to provide for a longer period in the next year.

Time: 16.19.0
Margin: 4 lengths
 

1st TAS – Cecil L McVilly
2nd VIC – Percy C Ivens
