Fletcher Christian and his fellow mutineers forced Captain Bligh and his remaining 18 loyal crew members into one of the three launches aboard the H.M.S. Bounty. Captain Bligh was a superior navigator. Against all odds, he brought his remaining crew to safety. Forty days and 3,600 miles later, the men reached the safety of Island of Timor.
