Schooner Bluenose stand-up model kit from Billing Boats
History of the original:
The schooner "Bluenose" occupies an outstanding position in the history of seafaring and sailing. Built for fishing near Newfoundland, she soon proved to be so fast that she won every one of the great classic regattas on the American east coast. Built in Nova Scotia (Canada) in 1921 - sunk near Haiti in 1946. A faithful copy, the "Bluenose II", was launched in 1964.
