Old Blueprints Unrolled

As New Bluenose Planned

By ED WALTERS

HALIFAX (CP) — The blue- prints have been unrolled from a dusty drawer. the carpent- ers in the old seafaring town of Lunenburg. N.S., are ready to work. and Capt. Angus Wal- ters is about to see a dream come true.

A second Bluenose is to be built this winter.

A _I-lalifax brewery plans to finance construction of a rep- lica of the racing-fishing schoo- ner Bluenose which sailed to four North Atlastic fishermen's championships in the 19203.

Launched from Smith and Rhuland's Lunenburg shipyard in March, 1921. the 142 - foot Bluenose was commanded by Capt. Walters until she was sold to the West dies Trading Company in 1942. were taken down and an en- gine installed. She carried cargo around the Caribbean until she struck a coral reef off Haiti one dark night in 1946 and went to the bottom.

ENCOURAGED BY BOUNTY

Capt. Walters, now; 81, as carried on a relentless cam- paign either to have the old Bluenose salvaged or another built from the same plans.

Since 1960 he has been head of a committee dedicated to building Bluenose II.

when Metro - Goldwyn - Ma- yer in 1959 commissioned Smith and Rhuland to reproduce HMS Bounty of mutiny fame for its film. Capt. Walters and the men who later formed the com- mittee felt a surge of hope.

Bounty was a full-rigged ship, both her square rig and bull designed along more ancient and difficult lines than the Bluenose. If the Bounty could be reproduced. why not the

solved this by offering to foot the hill. with the provision that it would be used to promote the company's products.

President Victor Oland said the new Bluenose will not he

raced but will be exhibited throughout the Maritimes promote the area's seafaring heritage.‘

READY BY SPRING Her keel will be laid this fall

and she is expected to be ready for la n n c h i n g next spring. Smith and Rhuland will build her and the man who designed the first Bluenose will supply the original plans.

W. J. Bone. 83. of neighbor- ing Dartmouth, a naval archi- tecti who taught himself the ex- acting craft of shipdesigning. is still actively engaged in the hiisiness. He estimates the new Bluenose could be built for as ‘ s 590.000 but will prob- ably cost a lot more.

if the shipwrights follow his plans exactly, he says. they can reproduce the Bluenose down to the last detail.

Mr. Roue told how the orig- inal 154-ton Bluenose came to he built. The schooners out of I. ll n e n b u r g and Gloucester. Mass. held races every year after the summer fishing season on the Grand Banks. Every year the Americans won.

WANTED PERFECT BOW

Mr. one worked by th primary theory in ship design- ing that if the bow is perfectly formed displaced water coming from underneath will push the ship ahead endlessly.

Although he admits the im- possibility of building a ship

wered by er underwater shape alone. this theory is re- sponsible for whether a ship sa' well.
