HMS Bounty HMS "Bounty, also known as HM Armed Vessel "Bounty, was a small merchant vessel purchased by the Royal Navy for a botanical mission. The ship was sent to the Pacific Ocean under the command of William Bligh to acquire breadfruit plants and transport them to British possessions in the West Indies. That mission was never completed due to a mutiny led by Acting Lieutenant Fletcher Christian. This incident is now popularly known as the Mutiny on the "Bounty". The ship was later burned on Pitcairn Island by the mutineers. The remains of the "Bounty" were rediscovered in 1957 by an American adventurer and various parts of it have been salvaged since then.
