Lange Anna Challenge 2022
A bet for a good cause
Who is faster? Man or machine? On 12th July 2022 we will find out!
What is the bet?
Who will cover a distance of 1/2 nautical mile between Helgoland and the side island Düne faster? Heligoland's mayor Jörg Singer on a surfboard with electric jet propulsion or the high-speed catamaran "Halunder Jet"?
What is the goal?
The Challenge is intended to promote cooperation for "plastic-free harbours" and thus launch the project together with many partners. The aim here is to be able to install innovative marine litter bins in Heligoland's harbours to rid them of plastic and marine litter. At the same time, the event serves to draw more attention to the problem and raise awareness.
The budget for the project is about 30,000 €, half of which has already been covered by the first sponsors. The "Lange Anna Challenge" is intended to attract further sponsors for this great cause. Click here for the official website of the Lange Anna Foundation.
When does it start?
The Challenge will take place on 12th July 2022 at 1:30 pm on the "Heligoland Reede" on the day of the sea bathing service.
