One of the most famous historical sailing ships, thanks to its history wich became a famous movie.
Captain Bligh, who had command of the HMS Bounty ship and her 44 crew members, had received the order in 1787 to leave for the Island of Tahiti in the Pacific Ocean.
On the way back, part of the crew of the Bounty organized a mutiny and left Captain Bligh and 18 of his faithful sailors on a frail boat in the middle of the Pacific. The mutineers approached the Island of Pitcairn in the bay which since then bears the name of Bounty.
The model
This model of boat is of museum quality. It is manufactured by hand by Malagasy craftsmen under the direction of Herve Scrive. For an optimal fidelity to the model, the construction of the ship model uses the process of assembly of broadsides on couples (the boards forming the hull are fixed on the couples forming the internal frame of the ship). The bridge of the boat is lathed as on a full scale boat. The hull and the bridge are varnished in several layers. The vessel is made out of exotic wood chosen for their qualities in model making and for their colors.
Each ship model is numbered and accompanied by a historical summary engraved on wood.
This model of boat, assembled by hand during tens or of hundreds of hours of craftmen specialized in hulls manufacturing, rigging, installation of veils etc, is not a kit, but is fully assembled and ready to be admired.
