===''Bluenose IV''=== In 2007, Joan Roué, the great-granddaughter of ''Bluenose'' designer William Roué, started raising funds to build a new ''Bluenose''. She cited the need for a new ambassador for Nova Scotia and Canada, listing the particulars at a ''Bluenose IV'' website.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.schoonerbluenose.ca/ |title=schoonerbluenose.ca |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080915095345/http://www.schoonerbluenose.ca/ |archive-date=15 September 2008 }}</ref> The name ''Bluenose III'' is owned by the province of Nova Scotia, and Roué could not reach an agreement for its use on the new schooner; Roué and North Atlantic Enterprises proceeded anyway, under the name ''Bluenose IV''. An agreement was reached with Snyder's Shipyard to build the new replica when fundraising was completed. However, as of 2009, Roué had not succeeded in raising the required funds.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.southshorenow.ca/archives/2009/071409/news/index024.php |title=Roué Looks for 7 Million for Bluenose IV |work=southshorenow.ca |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110706203738/http://www.southshorenow.ca/archives/2009/071409/news/index024.php |archive-date=6 July 2011 |date=14 July 2009 |last=Hirtle |first=Robert |access-date=5 March 2020}}</ref> The effort came to an end when the Province of Nova Scotia and the Canadian federal government constructed the new ''Bluenose II'' in 2013.<ref>Blakely, Stephen (2013).
