There were some changes this year to the race to accommodate for the strong winds. Rather than starting the Regatta from the usual start point of B.U.'s DeWolfe Boathouse, race organizers launched rowers from the Riverside Boathouse, which shortened the length of the race from 3 miles to 2 ½ miles.
