Understand that there may have been some confusion, given that the source book by Jenson documents the replica version built for the Oland family, ie, the Bluenose II. However, the kit I was working with was of the original Bluenose and that is how I eventually configured the model.
Thanks for the kind comment. Admittedly done by a novice but I was happy with the results. Have yet to tackle anything similar; now distracted by 3D modelling and perhaps 3D printing eventually.

As I mention somewhere in the blog, I had originally intended to configure the model as the Bluenose II. as that is the version that Jenson documents in his book. However, the rudimentary model that I had purchased was of the original Bluenose so I eventually followed the path of least resistance. Thus there is no build documentation for a Bluenose II version.
That is correct. But also note that the figure 44 is a bit of an approximation as not all elements of the original retail model were to the same scale, As I described in my blog, I calculated an average based on measurements of various components compared to the measurements of corresponding item on the full-size vessel (as detailed in Jenson's book).
@@jgeldart7393 As I mention above, I was starting with an existing kit so really had no choice in the matter. The only thing I could do was calculate what the scale of the model actually was, as there was no indication of the scale on the box or instructions. (It was a very basic model to sart with!) My blog of the build has the details of how I calculated it - this link will take you to the post: tfl-modelbluenose.blogspot.com/2011/03/
Hello. Hope you liked the video. If you want any deatils on how to build a model like this, check out my blog: tfl-modelbluenose.blogspot.com/2011/03/in-beginning.html
So beautifully done. A work of art and love indeed.
Thanks for the comments. Glad you liked it.
Magnificent! Well done!
Many thanks!
Thanks a lot! Very useful video!
Thanks for the comments. Built by a novice but hopefully you found something of value amongst my various efforts.
@@TFL1945 Sure thing! I've found a lot. Thanks!
Good luck with your build.
Ken, it is Bluenose II.
it is bluenose. Bluenose two has two engines and two propellers

Superb job thank you

Is there a blog like this for blue nose two

A real beauty!
Thanks.
44 unit of this is equivalent of one full size of real bluenose..?

@@TFL1945 yes sir thank you..
@@TFL1945 why did you choose 1:44?
