No Plans To Re-Schedule Bluenose II Re-Launch

The Bluenose II relaunch will take place as scheduled despite some inclement weather in tomorrow's forecast. The latest forecast for Lunenburg County is calling for heavy rain (15-25MM) and wind gusts up to 50 km/h. Department of Communities, Culture and Heritage spokesperson, Steve Warburton, says the event will go ahead as planned on Saturday morning. Warburton says they only need a small window to ensure Bluenose II enters the water safely. An all-day celebration begins at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning in Lunenburg.
