The schooner Bluenose
has a very special place in the history of navigation and yachting.
Built to fish off the Newfoundland coast, the ship soon turned out to be
such a fast sailer that she won all the great classical regattas along
the USA's Eastern coast. She was built in Nova Scotia in 1929, and
shipwrecked near Haiti in 1946. A true copy - Bluneose II - was launched
in 1964.
