BLUENOSE - 1921 CANADIAN GRAND BANKS FISHING SCHOONER
 

The Bluenose is probably the most famous Schooner in the world, and certainly one of the most popular model kits. After completion in 1921 she plied the Grand Banks fishing grounds of the North Atlantic off the coast of Newfoundland until she met her demise on a reef in the Caribbean. A replica of the ship was built in the early 60's and the Bluenose appears on the Canadian 10 cent piece to this day.

Model Shipways kit is the most authentic representation of any Bluenose available. And now, thanks to newly drawn plans and revised instruction book by Ben Lankford, it's ever more accurate and easier to build.

Plank-on-bulkhead construction uses laser cut basswood parts for a perfect fit. Flexible basswood strips are supplied for planking the hull. Fittings are true to the originals, and include wooden blocks and deadeyes, Brass ring and eyebolts, plus Britannia metal bilge pump, fife rail and anchors. Three diameters of rigging line and cotton sailcloth ensure an impressive model. (Display base with brass pedestals not included.)
