The Bluenose Schooner
was first launched in 1921 as a fishing schooner. It finished a full year of fishing and was then allowed to participate in the International Fishermen’s series of competitions. The schooner raced against the American schooner Elsie that first year and on October 24, 1921, the Bluenose defeated Elsie in the final race of the Series and won the International Cup. In 1938 Captain Angus Walters and his crew sailed the Bluenose to their final victory. She was undefeated during her career. By 1942 she was sold to the West Indies Trading Company and began a career of freighting goods in the Caribbean. In 1946 the ship went aground on a reef near Haiti. Since 1937, the Canadian dime has an image of the Bluenose Schooner on it. You can't sail the original, but you can take a 2 hours cruise on it's exact replica, the Bluenose II.
