A little bit of information on the Dutch crew.
Judging by reports, the crew are the 4x and 2x national champions in Holland. They won the ARB/Aegon National Championships in the quad in a time of 6:38. The crew was made up of [from bow to stroke] Haye Dijkstra, Louis Stolper, Roelant Feldbrugge and Jeroen Spaans, winning by 8 seconds. The crew then split into two doubles and recorded a remarkable 1-2 in the doubles, with the crew of Louis Stolper and Roelant Feldbrugge coming out on top over their quad crew-mates. This strength in depth and total domination of J18 sculling events at a national championship should prove a stern test for the likes of Marlow and Westminster. I would therefore expect this crew to be seeded.
