Bounty left Tahiti on April 4, 1789. On April 28, in the Friendly Islands, Fletcher Christian led the famous mutiny. From all accounts, Christian and several of his followers entered Bligh's cabin, which he always left unlocked, awakened him, and pushed him on deck wearing only his nightshirt, where he was guarded by Christian holding a bayonet. Despite strong words and threats heard on both sides, the ship was taken bloodlessly and apparently without struggle by any of the loyalists except Bligh himself. The mutineers ordered Bligh, the ship's master, two midshipmen, and the ship's clerk into Bounty's launch. Several more men voluntarily joined Bligh rather than remaining aboard, as they knew that those who remained on board would be considered de facto mutineers under the Articles of War.

In all, 18 of the loyal crew were in the launch with Bligh; the other 4 were forced to stay and man the ship with the mutineers. The mutiny took place about 30 nautical miles from Tofua. In a remarkable feat of seamanship and navigation, Bligh navigated the overcrowded 23 foot open launch on an epic 47-day voyage first to Tofua and then to Timor equipped only with a sextant and a pocket watch, with no charts or compass

He passed through the difficult Torres Strait along the way and landed on June 14. The only casualty of his voyage was a crewman, John Norton, who was stoned to death by the natives of Tofua, the first island they tried to land on. At Tofua (Bligh spelled it Tofoa), Bligh and eighteen loyalists had sought refuge in a cave (which they called "Murderers' Cove") in order to augment their meager provisions. Meanwhile, the mutineers sailed for the island of Tubuai, where they tried to settle. After three months of terrorizing the natives, however, they returned to Tahiti to put 16 of the crew ashore. Christian, eight other crewmen, six Tahitian men, and 11 women, one with a baby, set sail in Bounty hoping to elude the Royal Navy. According to a journal kept by one of Christian's followers, the Tahitians were actually kidnapped when Christian set sail without warning them, the purpose of this being to acquire the women.

The mutineers passed through the Fiji and Cook Islands, but feared that they would be found there. Moving on, they rediscovered Pitcairn Island, which had been misplaced on the Royal Navy's charts. On January 23, 1790, they burned the ship in what is now Bounty Bay. Some of her remains, such as her anchors and guns, are still visible in its waters.

See what our customers
have to say about us!

"... The quality of the models is superb, the quality of the ships, marvelous. Unfortunately, the Bluenose II had its rigging tangled in shipment. I believe the box was turned over several times. However I contacted Model USA Warships and they have been most accommodating about accepting re-shipment. I will replace the model with another selection - and possibly order other models!

The crating, packing and fisturing of the models for shipment is quite extraordinary - well concieved and carried out. I am very happy with the purchases and recommend this company without hesitation."

Bruce Tomasello
"This purchase was quickly filled and shipped immediately. It was packaged professionally and arrived without any damage. My contact with the customer service dept was professional and extremely helpful. I was so pleased I made a second purchase from this merchant. I would definitely recommend them to a friend."

Timothy Frederick
"San Felipe and Royal Louis finally reached Islamabad(Pakistan) after a long long journey of six months (with breaks) by road (Plymouth to Washington to Newark), by sea (Newark to Karachi) and by train (Karachi to Rawalpindi / Islamabad). Both ships are in excellent shape and are actually more beautiful than their pictures on your website."

"All in all it was a pleasure doing business with you and the model ships you sent will give my family and my brother's family Dr. Aly Abrar Khokhar (Royal Louis)} hours and hours of pleasure and will very obviously be the focal point and pride of our homes. Hope to refer more people your way."

I want to tell you how impressed I am at the quality of the "shrimp Boat" I just received and the great service you have provided. I am new to Model USA Warships and am thrilled that I found you.

Catriona Maclean
"Dear Melissa,

The pirate ship has arrived in great shape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The friend I purchased it for is ecstatic. It is beautiful.

The ship was very well packaged and the driver got the box here in dry and undented fashion. He stayed while we opened it to ensure the inside was not damaged. I am very impressed with The Custom Companies, Inc. delivery.

You have been outstanding in making all of this happen! I have the utmost respect for you and your company. My friend collects ships and I hope to be purchasing collector ships for many years. You have created a very loyal, repeat customer. (I'm not sure that will excite you considering the trouble my order brought (:>).

Thank you so very much! Your customer-centric behavior is rare and invaluable. Please share this with others in your management team as I want them to appreciate what you bring to the customer."

"Dear Melissa,

I received the US Constitution in perfect condition! I have been working a solid hour carefully removing her from the crating. I can honestly say, I am now an expert in performing this tedious task.

I want to thank you and your company for meeting and surpassing my expectations not only in the quality of the model ship but in the Great Customer Service provided to insure my complete satisfaction. In this day an age this is a hell of an accomplishment."

"The ordering process was quick and easy. This is a very reputable company and I highly recomend them!"

Best regards,
