Noel Butler and Seamus Moore finished with their best result to date, but fifth place was only enough for them to retain 22nd overall, the best result by an all-Irish crew at the event. Kenneth Rumball and David Moran were the next best in 25th, followed by Conor Clancy and Owen Laverty in 31st. Eight Irish crews took part.
The event runs into the World Championships, which begins at the same venue on Monday.
