From the Spirit of Mystery camp:
Hi All,
We just thought you would want to know that Pete has received a call from the BBC saying that Spirit of Mystery will be featured on the Coast program this Sunday 27th May at 9pm on BBC2 and BBC HD:
"At the Cornish fishing harbour of Newlyn, Nick Crane re-lives an astonishing, unsung feat of heroic British seamanship. In 1854, a tiny fishing boat, The Mystery, set sail from Newlyn to make the 12,000 mile voyage to Melbourne. She was the smallest boat ever to attempt the journey, but the seven Cornishmen on board were prepared to risk their lives in the world's wildest seas to join the Australian gold rush."
We hope you will get a chance to watch it or catch up later on BBC i-player.

There are no new projects ready to be announced, but watch this space - no doubt Pete will have another adventure up his sleeve. Keep visiting the website for more news: www.petegoss.com.
