Carrying on with the boat theme ... WayneS if my recollection is close, when we were in Lunenburg in 2011 or possibly 3 years later, the BN was under reconstruction. I think there was some sort of design issue in the rebuild.  |

Clive, when you brought up the subject, I remembered it going out of service for a period of time, I had forgotten how long, so googled it and there are quite a few articles on the duration, which started in 2009 and took about 6 years to complete, and I'm attaching the wikipedia report en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluenose_II#:~:text=from%20the%20trust.-,2009%20Rebuild,projected%20to%20cost%20%2414.4%20million. |

There are a couple of crosses in this image but not the subject as in the image above.  |
