@ArmouredPhalanx No - he's comparing the Bluenose to "rich men's toys", or yachts, or "the Gloucester boys, with their token bit o cod" - meaning the Americans would never catch up with the Bluenose and her sisters and what they could bring home.

Yes the bluenose was built in Lunenburg my american friend. :) nice try tho.
-
to be able to combete in the race the vessles needed to spend a certain amount of time fishing the grandbanks

ZERO dislikes, that means the average idiot won`t click on this by accident. Next beer is on me Stan Rogers........

@mrtruculent She competed in sea races against the boats from Gloucester, which weren't real working fishing vessels but just toys for the Gloucester boys.
-
If she was from Gloucester, why isn't Bluenose on the American dime?

@canmoore So true! We are not near patriotic enough....I hear you:) We are far too passive.
"that stings the cheek while the rigging well speaks of sea miles gone away." God bless this man. Canadians are always best under "full press." All of us. God bless Stan Rogers.
