The Bounty's Jolly Boat

One of the most notorious episodes in British naval history was the Mutiny on the Bounty, during which the First Mate Fletcher Christian and others seized the scientific exploration vessel HMS Bounty from Captain Bligh in the Pacific Ocean. Bligh, along with 18 loyal shipmates, was forced into one of the Bounty's lifeboats (then known as "jolly boats"). Bligh then accomplished one of the most famous navigational feats in history by sailing and rowing the Jolly Boat 3,600 miles across the Pacific, finally (and incredibly) reaching a safe landfall near Australia.

This model is an accurate 1:25 scale model. When completed, it will be about 16-1/2" long, with a beam of 4" (boat only) and a height of 10-1/4".
