The title comes from the "Eton Boat Song" and modern usage does not apply!  Mr. Poole has taken a fine portrait of the New Ross four though there are 6 people in the image.  I suspect that there may have been a "sub" during the year or it may be that the club's captain and the coxswain is included?
