Ken Sutton, Chief Engineer In The Engine Room Of The Bluenose II
Spotless down in the engine room as you would expect aboard The Bluenose II.
Very cramped area to work on the engines compared to the Gloucester draggers that we’ve done videos of in their engine rooms. That is to be expected as The Bluenose II was built and designed as a sailing schooner first and not a powered vessel.

Lot’s Of Work Aboard The Bluenose II
It was the perfect weather, lots of sun and a gentle breeze. You’d think that working on one of these schooners it would be time to kick back after the race and enjoy the rest of the day.
Not the case.
The crew was busting it out. Working their butts off. I took pictures early this morning when the boat’s deck was all shiny and gleaming. By the time all the spectators had walked the decks along with the race, the deck was all scuffed up and I imagine there won’t be any rest til she’s back all shiny again.

Gotta move the ol’ sled around somehow if there’s no wind.
Here are the controls for the engine to get the Bluenose around in the event there is no wind.

Gloucester Perspectives- Bluenose II Crew Interview
Watch as a mate aboard the Bluenose II convinces me that working aboard these schooners actually involves labor and not cruising into port and getting drunk.
Good Morning Gloucester
