The duo of Ziskind and Chen had seven top three finishes in the 10-race series, taking the A-Division win by six points over second-place Brown and 20 points over third-place Tufts. The duo of Danielson and Drummond, meanwhile, had six top three finishes in the 10-race event and claimed second place in the B-Division, eight points behind the winning Roger Williams boat. The combined performances led to a commanding overall victory by the Crimson, which won by a 53-point margin over runner-up Brown.
