This article is about the 18th-century ship. The Captain was not found and presumed dead on 2 November The hull is constructed of welded steel oversheathed with timber.įrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. On 29 October, sixteen Bounty crew members abandoned ship off the coast of North Carolina after getting caught in the high seas brought on by Hurricane Sandy. For much of to, she was owned by a not-for-profit organisation whose primary aim was to sail her and other square rigged sailing ships, and she sailed the world to appear at harbours for inspections, and take paying passengers, to recoup running costs.įor long voyages, she took on volunteer crew. When the film Mutiny on the Bounty was made, sailing vessels often with assisting engines were partly still in use and existing vessels were adapted to play Bounty and Pandora.įor the film, a new Bounty was constructed in Nova Scotia. The gun was subsequently returned to Pitcairn Island, where it has been placed on display in a new community hall. The modelling program allows for testing of a primary eastern breakwater, as well as a secondary western breakwater with the following goals: Assessment of existing wave processes at the site shoaling, refraction, diffraction, penetration Assessment of breakwater s performance for wave reduction Analysis of damage to the breakwater during design events As a result of the physical modelling undertaken by WRL, the breakwater layout and armouring design was altered to better meet the project targets. The need for the breakwater is to: Reduce the wave climate on the inside of the harbour jetty at Bounty Bay to enable safer embarkation and disembarkation from long boats and ships tenders in a greater variety of conditions Reduce the damaging effect of extreme waves striking the jetty Bounty Bay is the primary landing point for access onto Pitcairn Island, with the coastline being extremely rugged for most parts.
