Bluenose is a famous Canadian schooner that was considered the fastest fishing sailing vessel. On January 28, 1946, she ran onto a reef off Haiti and sank.
The Oland & Sons brewery from Halifax raised the funds in the early 1960s to create an authentic replica of Bluenose. Bluenose II was launched in July 1963 and differs from the original only in her interior fittings.
In 2010, Bluenose II was gutted and then completely rebuilt. The new build was launched on September 29, 2012. Although only a few parts were reused, the project is officially considered a repair and the ship continues to bear the name Bluenose II.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the Bluenose II.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional frame construction with hull planking.
Exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, among others, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model as the finished product.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and painted where intended. The model is then coated with a protective clear varnish.
Ornaments and decorative details (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels …) are made of brass, chrome or other high-quality metals.
The sails are made of fabric or silk, the masts of wood, and the rigging of sturdy cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be tightened at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
