Die deutschen Zwölfer, "Yacht" 1940-1958

Text + Recherche: Wilfried Beeck

Lobito (alias Sphinx) bei einer Regatta 1949 auf der Elbe

Der Krieg hatte die lebhafte Regatta-Tätigkeit am Ende der 30er Jahre zu einem abrupten Ende gebracht. Nach der Segelsaison 1939, die in vielerlei Hinsicht ein Höhepunkt für die 12er Szene gewesen war, fanden keinerlei Regatten mehr statt. Die Yacht hatte zwar 1940 noch einen ausführlichen Bericht über die vier deutschen Zwölfer gebracht, aber es gab natürlich in Deutschland und England keine Regatten mehr. Im Dezember 1942 wurden bei einem Bombenangriff auf die Camper & Nicholson Werft große Teile des Archivs und auch die beiden Zwölfer Ornsay und Westravöllig zerstört. Das war natürlich in der Yacht nicht zu lesen. Die vier deutschen Zwölfer hingegen überstanden den Bombenkrieg unbeschadet. Nach dem Krieg wird allerdings Inga für kurze Zeit von den englischen Besatzungsmächten beschlagnahmt und eine zeitlang von den Offizieren gesegelt. Der schottische Yacht–Designer David Ryder-Turner nutzt dazu die Segel der zerstörten englischen Ornsay , die beim Bombenangriff auf C&N 1942 unbeschadet geblieben waren. 1948 geben die Engländer die Yacht an John T. Essberger zurück, der sie Anfang der 50er auf der Kieler Woche recht aktiv gegen Burmesters Aschanti III segelt, bevor Burmester mit der Aschanti in die USA reist. 1959 stirbt Essberger und seine Tochter verkauft die Inga für den symbolischen Betrag von 35.000 Mark an die Marineschule Mürwik, wo sie seitdem als Westwind  zusammen mit Sphinx (der ehemaligen  Ostwind ) segelt.

Aschanti III 1949 auf der Elbe

Anita ging vom Margarine-Fabrikanten Walter Rau zunächst an einen Verwandten, der sie zur Yawl umriggte, bevor sie dann Anfang der 60er zur Segelkameradschaft Ostsee kam, die sie noch heute als Fahrtenyacht betreibt und mittlerweile fast 300.000 Meilen gesegelt ist.

Aschanti III 1953 bei der Larchmont Week

Die von Henry Gruber entworfene Aschanti III war in vielerlei Hinsicht der modernste deutsche Zwölfer. Eigner und Werftchef Burmester hatte auch als Einziger nach dem Krieg den Ehrgeiz, die Yacht gegen internationale Konkurrenz antreten zu lassen. Das war etwas, worauf die Leser der "Yacht" Ende der 30er Jahre vergeblich gehofft hatten. Die junge deutsche 12er-Szene hatte damals aufmerksam verfolgt, was in der Saison 1939 in England passierte, bei der sich die Olin Stephens Konstruktion Vim von Harold S. Vanderbilt gegen alle englischen Zwölfer durchgesetzt hatte. Nachdem Burmester die Aschanti kurz nach der Ankunft in den USA mit einem Alumast ausgestattet hatte, siegte sie gegen Vim in vier von fünf Rennen der Larchmont Week 1953. Nicht auszudenken, wenn 1958 statt der englischen Sceptre die deutsche Aschanti die erste America's Cup Heraus–forderung der Zwölfer betrieben hätte. Sie wäre eventuell chancenreicher gewesen, denn Vim und der 58er Cup-Verteidiger Columbia waren sehr vergleichbare Boote, die stets Kopf-an-Kopf lagen. Leider wurde die Aschanti nach ihrer Rückkehr nach Deutschland jedoch an Fritz von Opel verkauft, der sie zur Fahrten-Yawl umbaute und im Mittelmeer segelte. Später kaufte Burmester die Yacht zurück und segelte sie noch einmal erfolgreich auf der Nordseewoche 1958. Im Juni 1963 kam es dann aber bei einem Batteriewechsel zu einer Gasexplosion an Bord bei der drei Arbeiter schwer verletzt wurden und die Aschanti III abbrannte und die Reste danach abgewrackt wurden.

Klaus Auf Dem Garten beschreibt den Werdegang Burmesters und speziell die USA-Reise der Aschanti III mit ausführlicher Hintergrund-Information in seinem Buch über die Werft. In der "Yacht" findet man eine sehr schöne Reisebeschreibung von Age Nissen und auch später die Mittelmeerreisen in Berichten von Kapitän Gutsch. Während von 1958 bis 1987 international auf immer weiter entwickelten Zwölfern um den America's Cup gekämpft wird, gehen die deutschen Zwölfer einer eher beschaulichen Segelei nach. Erst mit der Initiative der Freundeskreis-Regatten und speziell der von Oliver Berking durchgeführten Classics können wir heute wieder spannende Zwölfer-Kämpfe auf der Ostsee erleben.

12mR „Anita“: Klassiker-Clubyacht im neuen Look – „Endlich ein echter Zwölfer“

Anitas neue attraktivität.

Auf Youtube ist der Zwölfer „Anita“ ist ein -Star. Das Video von einer Orkanfahrt fand größte Beachtung. Nach einiger Zeit in der Werft fehlt ihr nun ein besonderes Merkmal.

12er yacht anita

„Anita“ mit ihrer neuen Beseglung.

ANITA liegt am Steg der Robbe & Berking Werft in Flensburg. Der neue Mast ist geriggt,  das Achterstag neu durch das Achterschiff geführt und am Achtersteven verbolzt, die Püttingeisen aus hochfestem Spezialstahl sind eingebaut, die Anschlagpunkte für die Backstagen verlegt und verstärkt. Der Zwölfer ANITA hat sich hübsch gemacht für die neue Saison.

12er yacht anita

So attraktiv ist „Anita“.

Aber irgendetwas ist anders. Richtig, der Besanmast fehlt. Zum ersten Mal seit der Kieler Woche 1939 segelt der „Rhein Main-Zwölfer“ ( ausführliches SR-Porträt ) als Slup. Seit Anfang der 60er Jahre war ANITA als Yawl unterwegs. Die handlichere zweimastige und kleinere Takelage anstelle des Meterklassen-üblichen Slupriggs war besser zum Fahrtensegeln geeignet. Und mit diesem Rigg legte sie auf Langfahrten und Klassikerevents gut 400.000 Seemeilen zurück.

Das Rigg der „Thea“

Doch bei den Regatten der wiederbelebten Klassiker-Flotte war ANITA mit dieser Beseglung chancenlos. Der Wunsch nach dem ursprünglichen Slup-Rigg bestand schon lange. Schließlich entwickelte sich im Herbst 2016 nach Gesprächen mit den Verantwortlichen des dänischen Zwölfers D1, „Thea“ die Möglichkeit, das Rigg der Dänin zu erwerben.

Joachim Arndt von der gemeinnützigen GmbH der Segelvereinigung Rheingau SVR verhandelte mit Patrick Howaldt von der „Thea“. Würde das Rigg auf ANITA passen? Die Bau- und Konstruktionsmaße mussten geprüft, Statik und Lastaufnahmen untersucht und mit der Robbe & Berking Werft die Verlängerung des Mastes erwogen werden. Die Daten passten, Howaldt schlug ein und für die Betreiber der ANITA ist nun ein Traum in Erfüllung gegangen.

Schließlich wird ANITA nicht wie die meisten ihrer schönen Zwölfer-Schwestern von einem Eigner unterhalten, sondern ist das Clubschiff des Segel Club Rheingau. Den Heimathafen in Waluff am Rhein bei Wiesbaden hat sie allerdings noch nie gesehen.

Einsatz und Hingabe

Betrieben wird die ANITA mit viel Einsatz und Hingabe von den gut 120 Mitgliedern des Fördervereins der Freunde der ANITA e.V. Die Sanierung und der Erhalt wurden über die vergangenen sieben Jahre mit der Unterstützung von mehr als 80 Spendern und Darlehensgebern privat aufgebracht. Viele hundert Stunden Eigenleistung flossen ein.

Zwölfer Anita

ANITA im neuen Glanz mit nur einem Mast.

2011/2012 nahm sich ANITA eine kleine Auszeit, als das Unterwasserschiff auf der Bootswerft in Gilleleje saniert und Elektrik und Tanktechnik erneuert wurden. Seitdem ist die Yacht wieder intensiv auf Klassiker-Events, Jugend- und Zubringertörns gesegelt worden.

Karfreitag wurde die Jugendcrew des SCR mit neun Jugendlichen unter der Führung von Moritz Eider und Skipper Peter Eider senior, noch einmal intensiv in die Änderungen der ANITA und die Besonderheiten des neuen Riggs eingewiesen, dann legte Joachim Arndt unter Maschine ab.

Erster Schlag auf der Förde

Die Flensburger Förde zeigt alles was sie hat im April – Sonne, Regen, Hagel, Wind, Böen. Dann wird erstmals das 130 m² Groß hochgekurbelt – Vorsicht mit den neuen Backstagen! ANITA legt sich leicht nach Steuerbord und beschleunigt. Die Arbeitsfock mit 40 m² soll heute bei angesagten 4 – 6 Bft genug sein. Dann geht es raumschots aus der Innenförde.

Zwölfer Anita

Der erste Schlag mit dem einen Mast.

Die Logge zeigt schnell über 9 Knoten. Es ist alles noch ein wenig ungewohnt und so entscheiden wir uns erst einmal für Q-Wenden statt Halsen. Sicherheit geht vor. Die jugendliche Crew hat Respekt und viel Spaß an den Manövern. Bei Holnis legen wir zwei Reffs ein für die Kreuz zurück. Aber auch mit dieser Besegelung kreuzt ANITA mit acht bis neun Knoten durch die Flensburger Förde.

Nach vier Stunden und einigen Schlägen legen wir wieder sicher am Steg von Robbe & Berking an. Ein kalter, wunderschöner Segeltag ist abgeschlossen. ANITA hat den ersten Tag als Slup nach 78 Jahren gut bestanden. Nun freuen wir uns auf viele schöne Segelsommer als „echter“ Zwölfer unter den Klassikern.

ANITA wird die verschiedenen Events des Freundeskreises klassischer Yachten Max-Oertz Regatta, The Run, Rendevouz der Klassiker, German Classics und die 12er events zur Kieler Woche, in Dyvig, Europameisterschaft in Glücksburg, Wessel & Vett Cup in Aarhus und verschiedene andere Events und Törns segeln. Auf einigen sind auch noch Plätze frei. Wer Lust hat einmal auf ANITA mit zu segeln meldet sich am besten über die homepage www.freundedersyanita.de .

Abeking und Rasmussen bauten 1928 sechs 12mR-Yachten im Auftrag des New York Yacht Club. Diese Boote wurden von Starling Burgess entworfen und zwei von ihnen sind noch am Segeln, eines davon ist Anitra. Ursprünglich wurde sie innerhalb von 5 Monaten gebaut und dann nach Kanada gebracht. Dann wurde sie nach New York gesegelt und im Laufe der Zeit nahmen sie dort an vielen Regatten teil. Sie wurde nach der zweiten Regel des 12mR-Reglements von 1928 gebaut. 2003 wurde Anitra in einem stark desolaten Zustand nach Deutschland gebracht, wo sie dann von Martin Yachts in Süddeutschland restauriert wurde. Viele Strukturteile wurden ersetzt und neu gebaut. Nach ihrer großen Überholung, die ihr ein nagelneues und schönes Aussehen verlieh, wurde Anitra nach Flensburg gebracht, wo sie an mehreren Regatten rund um die Förde und die dänische Südsee sowie an Welt- und Europameisterschaften teilnahm. Ihre Innenausstattung ist hochwertig und Anitra ist nicht nur ein gutes Regattaboot, sondern auch für große Touren geeignet. Sie ist komplett ausgestattet, so dass Urlaubsreisen oder lange Überführungen für Regatten überhaupt kein Problem darstellen.

12er yacht anita

The 2024 12 Metre World Championship is sanctioned by the International Twelve Metre Association (ITMA) and hosted by the Porquerolles Yacht Club with the Yacht Club de France.

Yacht Club de Porquerolles

THE YACHT CLUB de PORQUEROLLES celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2016. Its founding President Sébastien Le Ber and his friends, passionate about sailing, created the Yacht Club in 1986 with a view to making the most of the magnificent body of water which surrounds Porquerolles.

Yacht Club de France

THE YACHT CLUB DE FRANCE, founded in 1867, remains faithful to its vocation: to contribute to the development of pleasure boating in all its forms; in cruises and in racing, defend and promote the values of solidarity, courtesy and moral elegance that animate all seafarers. Recognized as a public utility on the eve of the Great War, the Yacht Club de France is proud to have counted among its members Jules Verne, Virginie Hériot, Alain Gerbault, Commander Charcot, Marin-Marie, Eric Tabarly. Respect traditions, bring together the sailors of tomorrow.

Coupe de France

THE COUPE DE FRANCE by YACHT CLUB DE FRANCE was created in 1891 to develop the building of racing vessels in France. For its 55th edition, the challenge reunites the 12mR Class for twelve events throughout the Mediterranean Sea.

International Twelve Metre Association

THE INTERNATIONAL 12 METRE ASSOCIATION encompasses a living history of racing yacht design by the world’s foremost naval architects including Olin Stephens, Clinton Crane, William Fife III, Philip Rhodes, Johan Anker, Ben Lexcen and more who pushed their designs to the very limits of innovation. The resulting boats represented the pinnacle of yacht development from 1907-1987 for the highest levels of international sailing competition– the Olympic Games (1908-1920) and the America’s Cup (1958-1987).

2024 12mr worlds: nous sommes prêts, 2024 12mr world championship: nous sommes prêts.

PORQUEROLLES, FRANCE (June 14, 2024) – Sixteen of the most beautiful and storied International 12Metre Class yachts are now assembled in the harbor at the Yacht Club Porquerolles. Fourteen are ready to race at the 12 Metre World Championship organized by the Yacht Club de Porquerolles on an island just south of Hyères, France, from June 17-23, 2024.

The “rockstar” roll call of 2024 competitors includes previous and reigning World and European Champions, Olympic Medalists and America’s Cup sailors. The yachts themselves, each with a distinctive pedigree, are sailing legends in their own right.

Aurélie Lhuillier, Director of the Yacht Club de Porquerolles said, “It is a great pride for the Yacht Club de Porquerolles to host the 12m JI World Championship. We look forward to seeing all these exceptional boats moored in the port and then watching them race for five days in the Hyères harbor. For over a year, all the Yacht Club teams have been mobilized for this event which will be the highlight of the 2024 season.”

Because of the diversity in age and design of 100+ 12mR yachts built to the International Rule since 1907, the 12mR Class designates a separate World Champion in each of four 12mR Divisions. At this event World Champions will be named in the Grand Prix and Vintage Divisions with trophies awarded to the top 3 finishers in each group.

12er yacht anita

The 2024 12mR World Championship Competitors in the VINTAGE Division are:

  • Flica II (K-14) , Christopher Bunning, BVI
  • Jenetta (K-1) , Thomas Müller, DE
  • La Spina (I-1) , Michael Creach, IT
  • Nini Anker (N-15) , Christopher Avenarius, DE
  • Northern Light (US-14) , Hans Eliasson, SW
  • Thea (D-1) , Robert de Haer, DE
  • Vim (US-15) , Patrick Howaldt, DN & Helmuth Henning, HK

12er yacht anita

With a number of exceptions, the VINTAGE Division yachts are centered primarily in ITMA’s Northern European region where they are frequent rivals on the 12mR race course. Over the past two decades, this fleet has enjoyed a renaissance in the Baltic Sea. Despite their ages –the eldest, D-1 is 106 years old– these yachts are in top racing trim in addition to being beautiful to behold. Vim (US-15) is the reigning World Champion (Finland, 2021) in this division but will be met with fierce opposition in a fleet stacked with very competitive teams.

“The waters of the Bay of Hyeres in Southern France will see 6 Grand Prix 12 Metres racing for their Divisional World Championship. This is the largest group of Grand Prix boats racing in many years. The resurgence of the class racing in the Med is truly spectacular. The Grand Prix boats will be joined by one Modern 12 and a highly motivated and competitive fleet of Vintage boats. Sunny skies, great 12 Metre racing and island life on Porquerolles sound good to me.” Chris Winter, President, International 12mR Association

The 2024 12mR World Championship Competitors in the GRAND PRIX Division are:

12er yacht anita

  • Crusader (K-24) , Richard Matthews, UK
  • France (F-1) *, Marc Bonduelle, FR
  • French Kiss (F-7) , Christophe Babule, FR
  • Kiwi Magic (KZ-7) , Christoffer Blach Petersen, DN
  • Kookaburra II (KA-12) , Patrizio Bertelli, IT & Torben Grael, BR
  • Kookaburra III (KA-15) , Jesper Banks, DN
  • South Australia (KA-8) , Yann DelPlace, FR

*Being built for the 1970 America’s Cup, the national racing yacht of our host country France (F-1) is technically a member of the MODERN 12mR Division but as there are no other entries in this division, F-1 will sail with the GRAND PRIX Division on this auspicious occasion.

12er yacht anita

Although Legacy (KZ-5), the reigning World Champion in the GP Division will not be competing, the Olympian sailor that helmed KZ-5 to victory– Jesper Banks (DN) will be. He is skippering another 12mR– Kookaburra III (KA-15) to defend his own GP champion title in a group stacked with world-class sailors including Patrizio Bertelli’s (IT) Kookaburra II (KA-12), skippered by Torben Grael, who sailed a perfect regatta sweeping all five races at the recent Pre-Worlds at St. Tropez. We expect “feathers to fly” when the two Kooka’s — KA-12 and KA-15, former Aussie stablemates — meet at Porquerolles. Watch for the the most closely contested 12mR Grand Prix World Championship in recent history.

Porquerolles Preview

If past is prologue, the 2024 12mR World Championship to be organized by the Yacht Club de Porquerolles (Hyères, FRA) from June 16-24 will be truly spectacular! Recently six twelve metres built between 1929- 1986 representing a 57-year cross-section of 12mR development experienced the glorious sailing conditions and onshore hospitality of the venue. They were, Vintage: La Spina (I-1) ; Traditional: Ikra (K-3) ; Modern: France (F-1) ; and Grand Prix: South Australia (KA-8) , French Kiss (F-7) and Kiwi Magic (KZ-7) .

Sailing conditions were perfect with 8- 14 knots wind, air temperature 24°c and fantastic coastal scenery. Porquerolles is beautiful island 5 nm south of Hyères. It is a tourist attraction like Skagen in Denmark, Marstrand in Sweden and the Cape Cod area of the US. With only 200 year-round inhabitants, the island hosts up to 10,000 visitors on a summer day. It is a little paradise, known for the most sun hours in Cote D’Azur. The marina is huge and offers plenty of space for a regatta fleet of 70 boats. The little city is charming with small restaurants around the Square. The organizers were very good, everything worked out well including the social activities. It is a superb place for the Worlds in 2024, and we can highly recommend other 12mRs to come – you will love it! Johan Blach Petersen, Kiwi Magic (KZ-7)

“ This victory is the result of a lot of work by the team. We prepared, had good sails, and thanks to Mr. Bertelli we had an outstanding crew. It was great to sail with my friend Santi (Santigo Lange) for the first time, my great friend Marcelo (Marcelo Ferreira) who was my teammate for 25 years and my son too, it was a great experience for us. ” ~ Torben Grael (BR), skipper, Kookaburra II (KA-12).

12er yacht anita

The 2024 12mR World Championship Competitors in the GRAND PRIX Division were:

“ It is a great pride for the Porquerolles Yacht Club to have hosted the 12m JI world championship. The line-up was exceptional with the presence of legendary sailors. The races were intense, with difficult weather conditions for everyone. We are very lucky to have an extraordinary team of volunteers at the club, nothing would be possible without them! “ ~ Aurélie Lhuillier, Director of the Porquerolles Yacht Club.

Act II of the Coupe de France Series is now complete and reflected in the updated standings below. A disappointing performance at the Worlds by Coupe de France front-runner Vim (US-15) enabled 2nd place Kiwi Magic (KZ-7) and 3rd place French Kiss (F-7) to narrow the gap in the overall standings. The third and final Act III commences on September 4 at a special 12mR Regatta hosted by the RCNB at the Barcelona (SP) America’s Cup venue.

We are hoping that the administration can rectify this issue soon, but unfortunately at this time we can make no promises as to when... we have been working on letting the higher powers that be 'know of the situation... hang in there iboaters, we've been through a lot over the years and this is just another rough weather system rolling through to endure is all.

Early 1970's Ouachita 12' aluminum boat restoration

  • Thread starter Cheapshot
  • Start date Jul 25, 2010
  • Jul 25, 2010

Hello, I have been working on a 12' Ouachita boat due to some problems that it has. I have some pictures I will post in order so you all can see what I am dealing with. To start out with I was given this boat by my parents. They got it from my Grandfather who passed away more than a year ago. I trailored the boat over 800 miles to Missouri and parked it in my back yard. Last fall I began the tedious work of getting this thing back up to par and still have not finished it. The boat had a 4 inch crack in the center of the hull and it leaked water faster than you could bail it out. The hideous blue paint was flaking off and revealing 3 other coats of paint. A thick silver aluminum roof paint below the ugly blue, another coat of gray paint and a coat of blue primer. The original Ouachita decals on the sides were almost completely faded. I first began with laying tracing paper over the decals and got a pretty good reproduction of the original decals. I scanned those tracings into my computer then cleaned up the lines with MS paint. I will eventually take those to a sign / sticker company and have them remake the decals to the correct dimensions for me. I began stripping the paint off the boat by using aircraft stripper, a putty knife, a razor blade scraper and a drill with a wire brush. After I had most of the paint stripped off the boat I took it to a welding shop and had the crack welded shut. Once I got it home I began removing the completely rotten transom board with one hand. It never dawned on me before, but when I was removing the bolts from the handles that were bolted to the aft they were completely rusted. Once I got the transom board out and started grinding the paint away I could see the aluminum transom was corroded badly in spots do to two different metals contacting each other over the years along with exposure to water. So now I am at a stand still with need of advice. I had two options in mind, #1 mix up some JB Weld and smooth over the inside of the transom. #2 take the boat back to the weld shop and have an entirely new piece of aluminum plate welded over the outside of the aft. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I will add a replay with an additional 5 pictures.

American Eagle, US-21

American Eagle, US-21, photo by SallyAnne Santos

Built in 1964 according to the International Third Rule- America’s Cup.

1964 – 1968 Aurora Syndicate (Pierre S. Dupont III) – American Eagle – home port: New York, NY (USA).

The name is that of the sailing ship on which the first Dupont arrived in the USA. Built for the 1964 America’s Cup campaign, her keel was quite innovative from conventional Twelve lines and her mast passed through a raised section in the deck (known as “Mount Luders”) gaining an extra few inches in height. She ran off a 20-1 record in the June-July trials raced by Columbia , Nefertiti , Easterner , American Eagle and Constellation . American Eagle , helmsman William S. “Bill” Cox, bested all of the other boats, only to be overtaken by Constellation in a selection series still renowned for a 42-tack duel on the final windward leg of the second race. In 1964 she won the Lipton Memorial Trophy (NYYC).

1968 Firwood Investment, Ltd. (Herbert P. Wahl) – new name: Golden Eagle . The new Canadian owner paid $ 60,000 to the syndicate and commissioned Luders to create a new interior and deck layout. When the boat was to return to Canada, the Canadian customs taxed her for replacement value, not for the market value adding a total of $ 155,000 for duty and other taxes, forcing the owner to sell her to Ted Turner.

1968 – 1973 Robert E. “Ted” Turner, III – new name: American Eagle . Trial-horse Gretel II for the 1970 America’s Cup. Converted to IOR. Engine installed in 1968. She entered the most challenging races in the world, winning the Southern Ocean Racing Circuit, the Annapolis-Newport Race, the Sydney Hobart Race and the Fastnet Race.

1974 – 1983 Warren A. Brown – new name: War Baby – homeport: Hamilton, Bermuda.

1983 – 1987 American Eagle Syndicate – homeport: Annapolis, MD (USA).

Since 1987 American Eagle, Inc. (W. Herbert Marshall, II) – homeport: Barnstable, MA and Newport, RI (USA).

1987 – 2019 Together with Weatherly , Nefertiti and Intrepid she was part of America’s Cup Charters fleet

2020 American Eagle was purchased by Alexander Valcic and joined 12mR Yacht Charters fleet.

America’s Cup Results: 1964 19th America’s Cup Challenge, American Eagle (skipper: William S.”Bill” Cox) vs. Constellation (skipper: Bob Beavier) – 1-4.

World Championships Results:

2001 in Cowes (America’s Cup Jubilee): fifth in the Classic division

2005 in Newport: second in the Traditional division

2009 in Newport: winner in the Traditional division

2019 in Newport,  second in the Traditional division
