The Marine Heritage launched a raffle of a  model of the famous Bluenose made by master model Maker Pat Thorne of Southampton.

Crafted with infinite care, the model winner will be drawn in the summer of 2010 at or near the launching of the new Marine Heritage Tour Boat.

Other prizes crafted by Thorne will be for additional winners.  They include handmade birds and the most sturdy hobby horse you've ever seen.

Tickets can be obtained from Propeller Club Members
