The Mystery


Long ago in the harbour at Newlyn there was a fishing boat. She was called the ‘Mystery’. She looked pretty much the same as all the other Newlyn luggers. She had the number 233 painted on her bows (the front) and a crew of hard-working young fishermen to keep hershipshape. The names of her crew were; Job Kelynack, Charlie Boase, Lewis Lewis, Philip Curnow Matthews and the brothers William and Richard Badcock. So, the ‘Mystery’ was just an ordinary fishing boat but an extraordinary adventure lay ahead of her.
