Coxed Pairs, Men1

This event was scheduled to be held but was cancelled because of the horrid weather, which included high winds, almost freezing rain, and very rough seas. Because of the weather and the dangerous seas, the rowing events were re-scheduled to the afternoon, but as the weather was no better in the afternoon, and the rowing events were the last scheduled events of the 1896 Olympics, they were cancelled. There was only one known entrant, a boat from Ruderklub Piraeus of Greece.
