Quote from The FISA Centenary Book (p. 54):

4+: 1. FRA  2. SUI  3. BEL  4. NED

Having been slightly outpaced in the preliminary heat,

the Frenchmen from Stasbourg avenged themselves

brilliantly. The "Cercle Nautique du Rhin" proved to be

very tough adversaries, rowing with perfect rhythm.

Their final spurt was remarkable.
