"The ship, built in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia for the 1962 Mutiny on the Bounty movie, was an enlarged replica of the famous British warship seized by mutineers in 1789 in Tahiti. "The 55-metre, 400-tonne replica vessel has appeared in many documentaries and the Pirates of the Caribbean films. "Bounty’s crew sent a distress call at 6:30 p.m. Sunday night, reporting the ship had lost power and its pump was unable to keep up with water from high waves that was slowly flooding the ship. "Bounty sank, according to the vessel’s Facebook page, at 8:45 a.m. Monday morning. That report has yet to be confirmed." R.I.P. Bounty. I saw her in July when she came to the Tall Ships festival in Halifax. She will be missed. [ link to www.theglobeandmail.com]
