For the first time in decades, there are schooners 'abuilding on the famed waterfront at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. Dawson Moreland & Associates are building not just one, but two 48' wooden schooners in the best of Maritime traditions. These 'twins' will be built simultaneously, frame for frame, plank for plank, alongside the historic Lunenburg Dory Shop at 175 Bluenose Drive. Follow their progress from keel laying to launch!

Watch our keel wood adventure

If you enjoyed the story about how we came to obtain the wood for our twin schooner keels, you'll love this video of the Grenada Schooner Caper, as captured by Picton Castle crew members who participated in this adventure and put together by trainee sailor Job van der Heijden http://vimeo.com/5481133
