1967 European Rowing Championships

The 1967 European Rowing Championships were rowing championships held on Lake Allier, a reservoir in the Allier River adjacent to the French city of Vichy. This edition of the European Rowing Championships was held from 1 to 3 September for women, and from 7 to 10 September for men. Women entered in five boat classes (W1x, W2x, W4x+, W4+, W8+), and 14 countries sent 40 boats. For the first time, a women's team from outside Europe attended the championships, with the USA sending two boats. Men competed in all seven Olympic boat classes (M1x, M2x, M2-, M2+, M4-, M4+, M8+), and 24 or 25 countries (sources vary) sent 113 boats. Three non-European countries sent some (male) rowers: the United States, Australia, and New Zealand.
