Extract from The Royal Engineer Journal Vol No IV, 1st March 1871, page 12:

No arrangements are as yet made for the Royal Engineer Regatta which will take place as usual at the end of July; but the Royal Engineers must not forget that they have lost their presentation cup, rowed for at the Medway Regatta, and as we hope another cup will be offered to be rowed for, we should like to see the Royal Engineers come out again in their old form, not only at Rochester but at Tonbridge, Wateringbury etc.
