Spirit of Mystery update

The boys are making good progress, though not necessarily in the direction intended! The latest plot on their website shows them just over 300 miles fom Newlyn. The fact that those aboard do not know exactly where they are at present is reminder of the faithful recreation of the original voyage. They are navigating with a mixture of dead reckoning and sun sights, though as can be read in the latest entry, Pete Goss is sure they have been making too much ground to the east - and, as we can see and they cannot, he is right! Of course, if they carry on for too long on their current course the smell of paellea and the sight of the Spanish mainland looming over the horizon will confirm his suspicions!
