The 1984 Men's National Championships results are on the previous page.

1984 programme cover

The new Barrington course drew great praise from all those who attended and was superb. The course is largely free from the curse of the dreaded cross breeze and has ample training areas both before the start and after the finish. Some 15,000 specatators witnessed the final days racing.

A full set of images for this regatta can be found on the Australian Rowing Images website.
