Admirals's Cup Winnaar 1973 die 'Rote Sau'
1973
The 1972 Kiel Olympics provided another sea change to attitudes around the Admiral’s Cup. The introduction of the IOR rule brought new ideas, gear and techniques from dinghy sailing to offshore and the Olympics provided a forum for sailors to exchange ideas. In Germany, whose previous best performing boat had finished only 14th in an individual race, this was taken up in full and they built a roster of boats to meet the IOR rule including the eventual team: Carina, Saudade and Rubin. The boats this year, across the board, embraced innovation: pits were used by the Australians, twin-grooved forestays and crosslinked winches by the British.
There was a dramatic start to the Channel Race with a brisk 20 knot breeze blowing out spinnakers. For the British, the 2ndand 8th of two of the team was negated by a 42nd, dragging them to sixth overall; Germany led, followed by Holland and Italy. The second race was held in a force 8, blowing 9, but this didn’t stop Berend Beilken of the German team comparing it to a dinghy race with tactics to match – he took the overall win with Saudade although the Australian team moved into second place to the Germany by just 12 points. The third race, again won by Saudade, boosted Britain into third place behind Australia, now only 6 points behind the Germans. Consistency in the Fastnet Race meant that Germany went home with the Admiral’s Cup after what was a frustrating race for many, with fog and meandering to negligible breeze towards the end.

1973
Die Olympischen Spiele 1972 in Kiel brachten einen weiteren Wandel in der Einstellung zum Admiral's Cup. Die Einführung der IOR-Regel brachte neue Ideen, Ausrüstungen und Techniken aus dem Jollensegelsport in den Offshore-Bereich, und die Olympischen Spiele boten den Seglern ein Forum zum Ideenaustausch. In Deutschland, dessen bisher bestes Boot in einer Einzelregatta nur den 14. Platz belegt hatte, wurde dies in vollem Umfang aufgegriffen, und es wurde eine Reihe von Booten gebaut, die der IOR-Regel entsprachen, darunter das spätere Team: Carina, Saudade und Rubin. Die Boote waren in diesem Jahr durchweg innovativ: Die Australier setzten auf Boxen, die Briten auf doppelt gerillte Vorstage und vernetzte Winschen.
Das Channel Race begann dramatisch mit einer frischen Brise von 20 Knoten, die die Spinnaker ausblies. Für die Briten wurde der 2. und 8. Platz von zwei Mannschaften durch einen 42. Platz zunichte gemacht, wodurch sie in der Gesamtwertung auf den sechsten Platz zurückfielen; Deutschland führte, gefolgt von Holland und Italien. Die zweite Wettfahrt fand bei Windstärke 8 und 9 statt, was Berend Beilken vom deutschen Team jedoch nicht davon abhielt, sie mit einer Jollenregatta mit entsprechender Taktik zu vergleichen - er holte sich mit Saudade den Gesamtsieg, obwohl das australische Team mit nur 12 Punkten Rückstand auf Deutschland auf den zweiten Platz vorrückte. Das dritte Rennen, das wiederum von Saudade gewonnen wurde, brachte Großbritannien auf den dritten Platz hinter Australien, nur noch 6 Punkte hinter den Deutschen. Die Konstanz im Fastnet Race bedeutete, dass Deutschland den Admiral's Cup nach einem für viele frustrierenden Rennen mit Nebel und mäandernder bis zu vernachlässigbarer Brise gegen Ende mit nach Hause nehmen konnte.
