In its day, there was no yacht like the Bluenose II, a fishing schooner that combined efficiency, beauty and speed.

It was built in Nova Scotia in 1921 to fish the rough waters off the coast of Newfoundland. It would stay out on the sea until its holds were full of cod, using salt to preserve its catch. For 17 straight years it won the International Fisherman's Trophy, awarded to the winner of races among real fishing schooners that worked the Grand Banks. The races created a heated rivalry between the greatest deep-sea schooners from Newfoundland in Canada and those from Gloucester, Mass. Angus Walters at its helm, the Bluenose II prevailed year after a year and it became an enduring symbol of the maritime spirit.

The Bluenose II was lost off Haiti in 1946. If an item arrives damaged or defective, please notify us of any damages or defectiveness within 7days of arrival to get a return authorization; then send us the Photos or damages/defects If applicable Once we assess the damages two options are open.
