Three boats were fined after their crew members urinated in front of members
of the public during the traditional 200-year-old competition on the River
Cam.
Cambridge University Combined Boat Clubs (CUCBC) has given boats from Selwyn,
Caius and St Edmund's colleges a fine of £80 each for their unacceptable
behaviour during the races between college boat clubs.
Another student was fined £50 for using abusive language to an umpire and a
supporter of one of the King's College teams was made to pay £20 for using
offensive language in public.
One team was reprimanded for drinking alcohol while rowing and three boats
were fined £50 each for not wearing life jackets.
Rowers from St Edmund's College were punished for damaging the riverbank after
dragging part of a tree back to the boat to celebrate their success.
