Ladies’ vets race ended with Irene Too leading my several lengths. Mary Newman, Morlader and Double Dutch were fighting closely until towards the second half, when their positions were decided by a couple of lengths each.
Mens’ vets race was fought very closely between the Kiligeran, Tregarthen’s and the Millers Daughter. Little more than half a length separated the three of them for the entire second half of the race. The Irene Too snuck up at the very end when the three leading gigs went away from the shore, Tregarthen’s pushing the other two out to get an advantage in the bend. The Killigerran managed to catchup with the Tregarthen’s, who were leading, to finish first. Second was taken by the Irene Too on the inside. Tregarthen’s finished third.
