Banyoles was a very successful regatta for the men’s side with the two crews sent both achieving silver medals. Furthermore, the men’s four missed out on gold by less than thirty milliseconds, finishing in an exciting photo finish.
Unfortunately, the two women’s crews sent were not as lucky. The women’s four just missed the podium with three seconds separating first and fourth.
