Great sailors read the sea.
The best protect it.
At the 29er World Championship, young sailors will team up across countries to take on a real challenge:
design a solution to remove harmful algae bloom before it damages our waters.
Participants will be paired across different countries and challenged to design a practical solution to address harmful algae bloom, working with provided materials and presenting their ideas in a competitive format.
