Restoring the North Star of Herschel Island - Trailer

The North Star of Herschel Island is the last surviving arctic fur trading ship, a living relic of Canadian maritime history and one of few still floating sailing ships of her age. Purpose built in 1935 for two inuit fur trappers to sail the high arctic, she's got a rich history from asserting Canadian sovereignty during the cold war to searching for mermaids in the Aleutian islands.
This CZcams series will cover the restoration and refit of this historical vessel.

Kudos to everyone involved in this fine big project.

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

Thank you!

[@polardiscoball]

This is so exciting to witness. I wonder if she will once again grace the shores of Pauline Cove, Sachs Harbour, Tuktoyaktuk and slip down into the mighty Mackenzie Delta?

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

We’d all hope so! It’d be lovely seeing her sailing up there again.

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

Just a week from now 😜

[@gsmgsm4290]

Beautiful ⛵👍

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

Thanks 👍

[@edwardtimberlake4646]

Thanks for your response re future episodes. However, unless on a regular Friday cycle how will you alert your audience to a new episode?

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

Our aim will always be weekly episodes, if that changes we will inform you through CZcams posts and our Instagram/Facebook channels

[@Deanmachine667]

subscribe and you’ll be notified.

[@edwardtimberlake4646]

Sorry me again. To be clear about notification. I have hit the subscribe button each time, from the Trailer onwards. As that is a reactionary process that one does at each viewing. So, does that mean that somehow, once one has subscribed the first time, it will be recorded and notification going forward will be automatic, or have I misunderstood the process?

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

You only need to hit the subcribe button once, make sure you don't unsubscribe by hitting it again. Once you're subscribed our videos should show up in your feed every time we publish a new episode.

[@edwardtimberlake4646]

Is this going to be a regular video showing each Friday, or is not what is the scheduling likely to be?

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

We’re aiming for weekly episodes every Friday, we’re hoping for longer and higher quality episodes but we’re a very small team working on this right now

[@sergueiothonucci1638]

😃

[@edwardlong189]

Did this ship ever winter in Sachs Harbour?

[@Deanmachine667]

Yes for many years!!

[@FavouriteBoatworks]

If you haven't already watched Ep. 1 we touch on some of her earlier days up around Herschel Island and Sachs Harbour

[@chrissmart9701]

[@kaylajean2323]
