I know. I don't really know what they can do. I doubt you can just hire out the Thames for a boat race.

At this time, BRCL's concern is for Alex's well-being.

Alex's family are with him and he is receiving the best possible medical care. Until we have any updates, there will be no further comment."

I went to the Varsity rugby match a few years ago, the best thing about it was it was interupted about 6 times with streakers

Although I don't think it's actually illegal to swim in The Thames, I think it is frowned upon by the river police who patrol it, and I would suspect you would be picked up by them mainly for your own safety. I don't think I have ever seen anybody swimming in it.
