3rd fastest
Time: 10:02
Time: 10:02
Excellent start with only ~10 strokes before the start line. Good speed down to Green Dragon corner, after which we slowly overtook Trinity Hall NM1- were clear by the railway bridge. Then overtook Corpus Christi much faster on the way down the reach and were ahead by the finish. 10'02" very cold (1C f/l -2C) and foggy
Jesus came second with a time of 10'01"- some debate within the crew whether the overtakes cost us time due to extra rudder usage and non optimal racing lines, or helped by providing motivation to the crew. Correct answer left as an exercise to the reader
The overtakes cost us time. We came second. QED
