Bounty
The 1960's built replica ship Bounty was constructed using original British Admiralty plans of the 1787 Warship HMS Bounty. This image was captured as she sailed down Southampton Water towards the Esso Refinery berths at Fawley in September 2007. At that time Bounty was on a seven week tour of the United Kingdom after the completion of a refit. There is a considerable amount of information on the Internet about her history and life. Sadly she sank in a hurricane off the coast of North Carolina, USA in October 2012.
