I was wrong about one part of this. Black-hull Bluenose WAS filmed, and I know can tell you exactly where it was too:

Now, before I get into this, we need a quick lesson on the set& #39;s geography: To the left of the Star Dock there& #39;s another dock with a low Γ-shaped building, and just past that are the & #39;derelicts& #39;, the tallest of which you might recognise as being destroyed in Warrior.
Something to take note of: look closely on the hillside there in Jinxed - there& #39;s a little red sign. This is actually the & #39;Danger& #39; sign that Big Mickey would later wear in Munitions
The Boardgame actually gets this shockingly accurate, further identifying that inlet as the "Navy Dock" - take note who& #39;s moored there:
One further detail before we get into the meat of it - the Γ-shaped building is front and center in the expanded Naval Dock set in munitions, further tying it& #39;s normal placement in with the Navy.
so here& #39;s where things get interesting. In Jinxed, Boomer& #39;s helping the Z& #39;s with a Munitions contract - follow their path back to the left... they& #39;ve just come from the "Naval Dock" inlet, and you can just see the edge of it on the far right
Let& #39;s think really really hard about this pic for a minute. This isn& #39;t just any old workbench - this is a standby rig for the props to be on-set ready, for shooting:
notice the sky-backdrop. Boomer& #39;s there, so it has to be for Jinxed.

So what scenes could they be on standby //for//? Zak& #39;s an unknown, but Big Mac and Warrior are likely there for this, with TC and Sunshine probably already on-set being filmed - hence, the others out of the way but ready to be brought in. But what about the others...?
Boom. All in the one shot.
This just leaves.... Bluenose.
This just leaves.... Bluenose.
It gets even better: Bluenose and Boomer were actually built at the exact same time, but no one& #39;s really questioned why. Given the evidence, I think it& #39;s because they were supposed to be FILMED at the exact same time!
After all, what better place to make an appearance in the aftermath of a Naval Munitions contract going sour, after pulling out from Bluenose& #39;s own dock? Everything lines up perfectly - and it was the Boardgame of all things that tipped me off!
