1985 Men's National Championships - Lake Wendouree, Ballarat VIC
The 1985 Women's National Championships results are on the next page.
These Championships were conducted on the 1956 Olympic course at Ballarat and were celebrating the 150th anniversary of the founding of the colony of Victoria.
The regatta was conducted from Wednesday 10th to Sunday 14th April 1985.
Challenge races between club crews were also conducted on the Saturday and Sunday. This appears to have been an attempt to encourage club rowers, who would not normally attend the Nationals Championships, to not only attend but also race on the final weekend. The rowers appear to be quite a mixture from young to masters.
A comprehensive collection of images from this regatta can be found on the Australian Rowing Images website.
