From the last International Fishermen’s Cup Race (1938): Race 5 (final) - 26 October, 1938 - In light winds and despite breaking the topsail halyard close to the finish line, BLUENOSE takes the race by less than three minutes, maintaining her title and long history, a testament to shipbuilders of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Her story ended in 1946, working as a freighter in the West Indies, she sank on a reef off of Haiti. Wallace MacAskill (1887-1956) captured this final race in silent color film, shared via Len Burgess on WOODENBOAT. Background: bit.ly/1jAjlTm
