MS050  HMS BOUNTY

Frigate of the British Navy, this ship set for sail to Tahiti in 1787.  On the return trip, the famous Captain Bligh was so strict with the crew that it turned into a mutiny.  Christian Fletcher took command of the ship, put Capt. Bligh to sea in a lifeboat and returned to Tahiti. Bligh finally made it back to England. After 20 years, the group who mutinied were captured and judged by the English court, where three were condemned and the rest acquitted.
