- On 31 May 2026, the 10th Herzpiraten Regatta with 12 children with heart disease took place for the first time at the Hamburg Sailing Club on the Alster.
- Founded in 2014 by Nova Meierhenrich, the association has since collected over 100,000 euros in donations, with 10,000 euros going to the paediatric cardiology department at the UKE in 2026.
- Sailing offers the children a sense of achievement as a team and within their physical capabilities; the regatta and barbecue provided a shared experience.

Distress at sea

- Following the collision on Lake Constance, the 26-year-old motorboat driver was charged with conditionally intentional murder.  
- Originally charged with gross negligence manslaughter, the judge now considers the offence to be conditionally premeditated following expert reports and contradictions.  
- According to the expert, the motorboat was travelling too fast and should have seen the sailing boat; the accused denies this and sticks to his version.

- In 2025, the Swedish navy discovers a well-preserved shipwreck from the late 16th century in Kalmar Sound, older than the "Vasa".
- Dendrochronological analysis dates the wood to within a few years; experts from Kalmar County Council confirm its cultural and historical value.
- Baltic Sea conservation conditions favour preservation; identity, possible salvage and further investigations into the wreck are still open.

Crime

- The film will remain a secret for the time being, but catering with burgers, snacks and drinks from 6 p.m. will combine harbour flair and summer evening atmosphere.
