Bluenose II

Local nameBluenose II
LocationDowntown Halifax, Canada

Bluenose was a fishing and racing gaff rig schooner built in 1921 in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. A celebrated racing ship and fishing vessel, Bluenose under the command of Angus Walters, became a provincial icon for Nova Scotia and an important Canadian symbol in the 1930s, serving as a working vessel until she was wrecked in 1946. Nicknamed the "Queen of the North Atlantic", she was later commemorated by the Bluenose one-design sloop and a replica, Bluenose II. The name Bluenose originated as a nickname for Nova Scotians from as early as the late 18th century.
