Oxford Cambridge Boat Race 2003 - The Greatest Race rowing · September 30, 2016 2003 was a momentous race for a number of reasons. It was the first time that the Race had been scheduled for a Sunday, though on one previous occasion (1984) a postponed race was held on a Sunday. It was also only the second time ever and the first for 103 years that the crew announcement included brothers (the Livingston's, David for Oxford and James for Cambridge) rowing against each other. This brotherly rivalry was recounted in the book Blood Over Water. Most remarkably the verdict was 1 foot.
