Biography

Rowers Alfred Plé and Gaston Giran reached the final as the third boat without having to qualify and thus with minimal effort. They were, however, also European Champions the same year and runner-up in 1924. Their boat represented the Société Nautique de la Marne club in Joinville-le-Pont, where Plé later opened a shipyard that was in operation into the 1980s.
