Glooscap was a full-rigged sailing ship built in 1891 at Spencer's Island, Nova Scotia in the Minas Basin of the Bay of Fundy.

Glooscap was the culmination of several decades of large-scale ship building in the small village of Spencers Island.

[2] She circled the world in her first year of operation, carrying freight to Liverpool, Cape Town, Australia, and New York City.

Although built in the twilight period of the Age of Sail, Glooscap earned good profits for her owners shipping freight around the world for two decades under the command of two noted captains, the brothers George T. Spicer and Dewis Spicer of Spencers Island.

The ship is featured in exhibits at the lighthouse museum in Spencer's Island and at the Age of Sail Heritage Centre in Port Greville.
