A bronze statue recently unveiled at Newlyn by the Princess Royal
"reminds those present of the many Cornish fishermen who were lost
while at sea," says Douglas Williams, vice-chairman of Newlyn Harbour
Commissioners."Everyone who from now on looks at that statue knows only
too well that the list of lost fishermen from all our harbours is long,
too long, and we may now remember all those fishermen and their
families with true pride and affection.

FOUR years after arriving in Newlyn for a major restoration,
111-year-old fishing lugger the Ripple has returned to the
sea. Once fully operational, the Ripple will be the only, working, Cornish, fishing lugger in the world.
The launch marks the start of her new career with the West Cornwall
Lugger Industry Trust Ltd offering enthusiasts the experience of
sailing and fishing on a lugger 100 years ago when fishing was a
sustainable industry.
