Pretty much nothing to update on the progress of
Bluenose II since the webcam was taken off except for the tarp over the deck being removed and temporary railings installed. The bowsprit is still not in place yet and the green tarp is still around her stern where a steel rudder (yes ABS wants a rudder made of steel instead of wood) and propellers would be. Pictures taken on Saturday July 20, 2013
The Smith and Rhuland (now owned by the Lunenburg Industrial Foundry) building where the first Bluenose II hull was built 50 years ago on Wednesday (July 24 to be exact) and the replica of HMS Bounty in 1960 and lost in 2012 during Hurricane Sandy off Cape Hatteras, N.C.
