With the power of sail being prominent in Newlyn at the moment, Spirit of Mystery, Ripple, Barnabus and the Happy Return all featuring at the Fish Festival last weekend there are plenty of people discussing the possibile return of fishing with sail power. Even Grimmy Mike (see below) might just see the appeal in doing so as there are currently no catch restrictions on vessels under 10 metres!
Our friends over in St Ives are getting nearer to realising this dream with a number of projects on the go - see their 'Jumbo' website for more information and the take the chance to become a shareholder in what could potentially be a piece of history in the making.
