Building twin schooners at Lunenburg

For the first time in over 30 years, they're building schooners on the harbour shores of historic Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. In fact, Dawson Moreland & Associates is currently building two 48-foot wooden schooners simultaneously alongside the famous Dory Shop in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. Watch this video to see designer/builder Dave Westergard and a helper install steam-bent frames.

Thanks - we think it's important too! And your comment reminds me that it's probably time that we shoot some more video. In the meantime, you may be interested in our construction blog, on which we upload photos of the ongoing build. You can find it by searching 'twin schooner blog' (don't think I can add the actual address in this forum). Best, Dory Plug
