In 1952 Helmut Heinhold formed together with Heinz Manchen and helmsman Helmut Noll a new twos with a helmsman .

The three Bremen guys qualified for the 1952 Olympic rowing regatta in Meilahti , a district of Helsinki. There two German boats reached the final. The eighth finished fifth, while the two was only defeated by the French Raymond Salles , Gaston Mercier and Bernard Malivoire and thus won silver.

At the European Championships in Copenhagen in 1953, they were defeated by the French boat, in which none of the 1952 Olympic champions sat. In 1954, Manchen and Heinhold won their third German championship title in a row, this time being driven by Hans Zander.
