A true old-Hollywood celebrity, the HMS Bounty was built for the MGM movie “Mutiny on the Bounty”
which retells the famous maritime mutiny of 1789 in the South Pacific. Today, the ship is dedicated
to educational development and works closely with various organizations on leadership-learning and
youth education-at-sea programs. In 2008, the ship is traveling around the world in commemoration
of the 220th anniversary of the original Bounty’s first arrival in Tahiti in 1788.
