The Bluenose, "queen of the North Atlantic fishing fleet," was a schooner of 285 tons, designed by Willian J. Roue of Halifax and built of Nova Scotian materials by Smith and Rhuland at Lunenburg. Launched in 1921, she won the Herald trophy, emblematic of the sailing championship of the international fishing fleet. Never defeated in her native waters, she successfully defended her championship in 1922, 1923, 1931 and 1938, becoming a symbol of national pride. After achieving renown as a successful working schooner, the Bluenose was wrecked and lost off Haiti in 1946.
