The Canadian Experience S01 E01 The Queen and the Skipper: The story of Bluenose

The Bluenose was the fastest deep-water fishing schooner ever to sail the Grand Banks. For nearly 2 decades she dominated the International Fishermen’s Trophy races, defeating a string of challengers from Canada and the United States.
