World sculling title clash on Wangumui River
The afternoon race on New Zealand's Wangumui River will pit Richard Arnat against William Webb for the world sculling championship with a £500 stake. Arnat, once underestimated, defeated Webb in an earlier match and solidified his claim as champion. Webb faced rheumatic forearm trouble and later a course of treatment, which reportedly cured him before this decisive contest. The Defenders career trace shows Amst rising from rowing novice to Sydney Thousand winner, aided by backers and a mentor, George Town, as he entered the sport with a rapid ascent.
