A wooden fishing boat that will take West Country adventurer Pete Goss
to Australia using only the stars to navigate has been launched.

The lugger, Spirit of Mystery, has been taking shape in boatyards in
Millbrook, Cornwall, for the last nine months.

The journey was inspired by seven Cornishmen who started the voyage of
almost 12,000 miles from Newlyn to Melbourne in Australia in 1854.

In October Mr Goss, 46, his son Eliot, 14, brother Andy, 42, and
brother-in-law Mark will set sail in a vessel that has been made as
close as possible to the original.

The family connection is also a tribute to the first sailors who were
all related.

Their voyage will be relying on a sextant and the stars to navigate,
first to Cape Town in South Africa and then to Melbourne.
