Distance: 2000m
Conditions: Strong cross headwind 15-20, gusts to 35 mph; high levees on narrow canal only reason rowing was possible.
Comments: After 300 meters Tulane MV8 led by just over a length when LSU redefined the concept of a boatstopping crab. Crews were paddled up the course and restarted for sprint in.
