Bluenose II Table Open To Public


A table dawning items from every province and territory is up for public viewing. The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic in Lunenburg will give people a chance to see the hand-crafted table in the Bluenose exhibit in the second floor gallery. The one-of-a-kind table is made of items like wood, stone and mineral that was donated during this summer's Council of the Federation meeting. The table will eventually be installed on the schooner as part of its restoration. It was built by Colin O'Toole of Covey Island Boatworks, one of three companies in the Lunenburg Shipyard Alliance rebuilding Bluenose II for the province.
