The Hector Reconstruction

The Hector Reconstruction

In 1773, a ship called the Hector brought settlers, those left displaced by the Scottlsh Highland Clearances, to Pictou to try a different life. The original ship didn't last much longer than the trip due to its age and state of repair, possibly looking not unlike the reconstruction (launched 2000) you see here, which clearly needs some restoration.
