The 1924 European Rowing Championships were rowing championships held on
Lake Zürich in the
Swiss city of
Zürich.[1] The competition was for men only and they competed in six of the seven Olympic boat classes (M1x, M2x, M2-, M2+, M4+, M8+) as they had been rowed earlier in the summer at the
1924 Summer Olympics in
Paris; the new Olympic boat class of
coxless four (M4-) was also part of the
European Rowing Championships, but the only competitor would be Switzerland and they didn't want to win the European championship by row-over.[2][3] It was the first time that the
coxless pair boat class was part of the regatta.[4]
