First Championships – Mens Senior 8+

1939-1940

UCD beat Limerick Boat Club by 3/4 length in 1939 and then in 1940 beat Trinity:

The final was a classic – neck and neck over the whole course, Trinity leading twice, and then being pulled back. At the finish UCD was there again, but only by the narrowest of margins, given variously as one foot, three feet and a canvas.
