Bluenose II<\/em>, Nova Scotia\u2019s sailing ambassador, is a faithful replica of her famous mother, the original Bluenose schooner that was launched in 1921 and raced undefeated in international competition for 17 years and today appears on the the Canadian dime (10-cent piece). Like her mother before her,\u00a0Bluenose II<\/em>\u00a0sails out of her home port and birth place,\u00a0Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/a>\u00a0on Nova Scotia’s\u00a0South Shore<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bluenose Sailing Schedule<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Bluenose II’s<\/em>\u00a0sailing season runs from June 1 to September 30 each year and she winters in her home port of Lunenburg.

History of the Bluenose<\/h2>\n

The original Bluenose was built in Lunenburg\u2019s legendary Smith and Rhuland Shipyard to compete for the International Fisherman\u2019s Trophy. In October 1921, the Bluenose won her first race and for the next 17 years, she defeated all contenders. In 1928, the Bluenose defeated the Thebaud in the final race series and was named Queen of the North Atlantic fishing fleet. The Bluenose had become the pride of Nova Scotians and in 1937, the Canadian dime was changed to include an image of the mighty ship.<\/p>\n

In 1942, despite the efforts of Bluenose Master, Captain Angus J. Walters and others to keep the ship in Nova Scotia, the vessel was sold to the West Indian Trading Company. Four years later the Bluenose struck a Haitian reef and sank.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

Building the Bluenose II<\/h2>\n

In 1963, the Bluenose II was built from identical plans as the Bluenose. She was built in the same shipyard of Smith and Rhuland by some of the same men who had constructed her mother before her. Bluenose II was sold to the government of Nova Scotia for $1 in 1971 by the Oland family of Halifax and has served as Nova Scotia\u2019s tall ship sailing ambassador ever since. The original Bluenose and her captain, Angus J Walters, were inducted into the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame in 1955.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n
