    Description

    Model Shipways Bluenose Canadian Schooner 1:64 Scale
    by Model Expo Plank-on-Bulkhead Kit
    The schooner
    Bluenose
    was built in Nova Scotia in 1921 to fish the rough waters off the coast of Newfoundland. A salt banker type, she stayed out until her holds were full, using salt to preserve the catch.
    Bluenose
    was lost on a reef near Haiti in 1946, but an exact replica was launched in 1963
    .
    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.)
