Hi Joey,. Heads up in advance. I am writing to  you to let you know there is a group of 8 Aussies coming over to go Wicked Tuna fishing starting 21st July.

We are all from the same yacht Club Sandringham Yacht Club in Melbourne Australia.  The idea was hatched 12 months ago when we were all talking about Wicked Tuna on TV. I made a few enquiries and suggested to the team ‘ why don’t we go over and meet the stars of the show’. So we arrive Gloucester on the 20th – 26th  and we are staying at Cape Ann’s Marina and are going out with Dave Newell for three days fishing in that week.

I thought this may be of interest to the Gloucester community to show people from so far away are coming to visit your city.

Any further info you may need if this is of any interest to your newspaper let  me know.

Kind Regards.

Peter Turrell
