Distance: 2000m
Conditions: Increasing direct headwind over the course of racing: moderate velocity at the start of the day, very strong with whitecapping waves and wind-blown spray by the conclusion of racing.
Comments: An unruly Connecticut River in Hanover made switching the race location to St. Paul's the best bet for good racing.
The race course at St. Paul's is best suited to two-crew racing. Thus the Bill Cup was raced as a double dual. Dartmouth and Boston University raced to open the morning (order of racing: 4V, 3V, 2V, 1V), then Boston and Rutgers raced (order of racing 3V, 2V, 1V) before Dartmouth and Rutgers finished the afternoon (order of racing 3V, 2V, 1V).
Floating starts for all races.
Tremendous thanks to Colin Campbell and the St. Paul's rowing community for making this race happen.
