Aanvullende informatie

The HMS Bounty connection to Pitcairn is not merely symbolic — the mutineers who seized the ship from William Bligh in 1789 deliberately burned the Bounty in Bounty Bay in 1790 to prevent detection of their settlement. Pitcairn had no permanent indigenous population; the island was essentially unknown to European authorities at the time, and the mutineers and their Tahitian companions remained undiscovered for 18 years. The wreck still lies in the bay.
