Racing the other crew who had also been upgraded from Foster-Fairbairn pairs to Magdalene Silver Pairs due to a lack of entries we were still rather scared at the start. We managed to keep our start calm and settled into race rhythm. Thanks to some excellent bank steering from Tom we got through the corners uneventfully. Once we were on the reach the second whistle for the previous race (the other semi-final) only just finishing was heard. There were a surprising number of steering calls to keep us in a straight line along the reach but as we crossed the finish it was clear we wer the victors as the other pair had only just come round the bend in the reach.
