Captain Bligh was known as one of the best if not the best foul weather commander in the British navy. He proved that in his 3,000 mile voyage to Timor.
Fletcher Christan was an aristocrat while Captain Bligh was a commoner. so Bligh never got his proper due and is depicted unjustly as a sadist.
But didn’t Bligh have three mutinies before someone in the navy got him to retire?
“He proved that in his 3,000 mile voyage to Timor.”
Truly it is amazing that he and his men survived that.
