HMS Psyche
Canadian Maritime
Heritage Society
A new look for Psyche! After 14 years of being sprit-rigged, Psyche has been upgraded to lug-rigged. The new white lug sails are an exciting change to the boat and offer new opportunities to sail in ways we’ve never been able to before! This new rig was a culmination of three years of planning, effort, and fabrication by the crew. We’re keeping traditional sailing skills alive and putting them into practice.
