Welcome to SOS. It is an excellent place to share an to learn.
Seaways' Ships in Scale had a 5-part series of articles about Bluenose II from Jul/Aug 2003 through Mar/Apr 2004. I don't have the original magazines, but I think you can still get the articles from Ships in Scale.
PM me if you need any help finding it.
Happy Modeling!

I just found that there are a number of references about Bluenose, on navyboardmodels.com. I'm not sure how much info there is, but at least there seem to be numerous photos that may be helpful to you.
Happy Modeling!
