Bluenose II Canadian Fishing Schooner Model Kit 1:75

Aertesania Latina shipbuilding kit Bluenose II wooden model ship 1:75

History of the original:

The Bluenose was launched in Nova Scotia in 1921 to fish in the rich waters of Newfoundland. However, the ship soon found another purpose, as it was realised that this schooner was winning all the regattas held on the east coast of the United States. It became the fastest yacht until it ended its glorious career on a rocky reef off Haiti. Bluenose II, built in 1964, is a replica of the original Bluenose.
