The paddles sure have change since then (foil type) and the boats are longer now it seems.

Great video. I finished junior DW in 1968. Met Police Cadets with Bill Starling ( great bloke couldn't wish for a better partner ) Tremendous challenge for everyone. So glad to see Westminster Bridge !!!!!!

Thanks for the upload. Been trying to get it, still have the VHS. My old man is on twice, once in the walk about before day one and then hitting Knutsford on a beautiful line down the right. Managed to do my first 20 years after this. What a race and an excellent experience. Great memories

I didn’t actually do the design myself but I arranged for the weir to be modified in that way to incorporate the fish ladder which could double up as a canoe shoot.

Nice tribute, Tim. Seeing him in most of these videos is surreal. He was a special individual.

Inanda dam introduced

You will see in the 1988 race when loaded that the dam was under construction during the time of the 1988 race and we raced through a gap left in the wall.
