Fateful Voyage of HMS Bounty & Re-enactment
The Fateful Voyage of The HMS Bounty 60 Minutes Australia •31 Jan 2021
All great stories of the sea tend to end in disaster, usually involving reckless human error in which people take the sea for granted. Such is the story of HMS Bounty. The first Bounty was burned to the water line off Pitcairn Island by Fletcher Christian, after history's most famous mutiny. The second Bounty was a twentieth century replica, built for the 1962 movie starring Marlon Brando. Last year, it too sank, after deliberately sailing straight into Hurricane Sandy - one of the worst storms ever recorded. It was an unbelievable decision on the part of her skipper. One of the crew to perish was Claudene Christian, a descendant of the original mutineer, Fletcher. The Captain also went down with his ship, leaving behind many unanswered questions about his actions on that Adventurer Re-enacts Epic Mutiny Voyage of Captain William Bligh It sounds like a dream trip - a 47-day cruise around the South Pacific. But adventurer Don McIntyre, doesn't like to do things the easy, conventional way. This time he got it into his head to re-enact the epic voyage of Captain William Bligh after the infamous mutiny on the Bounty. Set adrift off Tonga in a boat scarcely larger than a dinghy, Bligh made it all the way to West Timor - some 4000 nautical miles. Don set off in a faithful replica of that longboat, packed with minimal rations and no map. He even short-sheeted himself on toilet paper, little wonder his fellow adventurers were on the verge of their own mutiny for most of the voyage.
