HISTORY OF THE BOAT BLUENOSE II: REGATTAS AND FISHING BOAT

Discover the Bluenose II, a wooden model ship of this Canadian schooner. The original Bluenose boat was built to be a fishing and regattas boat in response to the defeat of Delawana schooner from New Scotland against Esperanto, Massachusetts.

After a life divided between victories in regattas and the hard work of fishing, the Bluenose found its final destiny in 1946 when embarking in a reef in Hahiti. There is a Bluenose II faithful replica of the original built in 1964 that serves as ambassador, symbol and tourist attraction of the city of Lunenburg, sailing even today.
