Nova Scotians will once again see the Bluenose II in the water in its home port of Lunenburg, as it moves on to one of the last stages of its restoration.
The Bluenose II was undocked from the Lunenburg Marine Railway today, Sept.
6, and towed across the waterfront to Lunenburg Foundry Plant 1 Wharf where it will begin dock and sea trials.
“Bluenose II is a Nova Scotian and Canadian tourism and heritage icon, holding a special place in the hearts of the people of Lunenburg, and it is spectacular to see her back in the water,” said Communities, Culture and Heritage Minister Leonard Preyra. “The hard work and precision of the craftspeople of the Lunenburg Shipyard Alliance will ensure her role as Nova Scotia’s sailing ambassador for many years to come.”
Over the next few weeks as dock and sea trials commence, the Bluenose II will receive its rigging.
“Seeing Bluenose II back in the water will be a welcome sight,” said Lunenburg Mayor Rachel Bailey. “We look forward to successful trials and many more years of service as our sailing ambassador.”
