The owner of the "Sellebrunn" boat is proud to be a member of the Association for the Preservation of Helgoland's Börteboote e.V. Built as a traditional fishing vessel, it was originally used to board and disembark passengers from larger ships at anchor, and is now exclusively used as a passenger boat. In 2018, the German UNESCO commission included Helgoland's steam-powered Börteboote and their boats in the list of intangible cultural heritage. The boat regularly operates around Helgoland and its surrounding waters. Among other things, the association's efforts to preserve the historic Börteboote on Helgoland, which have been built in their current form since the early 1950s, are supported.
The association plays a central role in protecting and maintaining these unique boats, which are a valuable part of Helgoland's maritime history. Through membership, the owner of the "Sellebrunn" shows their connection to the region and commitment to preserving this cultural tradition. Participation in the association not only helps keep the Börteboote in good condition but also raises awareness of Helgoland's maritime culture among visitors and locals.
With the support of the association, the owner of the "Sellebrunn" helps ensure that these historic boats can continue to be used for tours, events, and as a cultural heritage of Helgoland. Membership in the association is another step toward preserving the island’s maritime heritage and providing Helgoland's guests with authentic experiences.
