Oxford Cambridge Boat Race 2003

Wish BBC had a higher quality version of this on their site - but until that happens, this is the best we can do. Enjoy the most exciting boat race ever.

126 years earlier in 1877 my ancestor George Latham Davis was the Cambridge Boat crews cox. It was declared a dead heat! George was a Barrister.

Good book to read is Blood Over Water. Written by David and James Livingston (Oxford 6 and Cambridge 7 respectively) and is about THIS RACE

[@troelsdalgarddanielsen1696]

You mean Cambridge 7, and Oxford 4 right? :P A very interesting story pre-race to read indeed.
