Which animal has the longest sexual organ relative to its body?

Barnacle

Background

The barnacle has the longest sexual organ in the animal kingdom. It can be up to eight times the body length. The reason is simple. Barnacles are stuck in place and must reach far to find a partner. For a human this would mean a length of ten meters.
