Pitcairn

Welcome to Pitcairn Island, rugged and remote home to 56 descendants of the original crew of The Bounty.....as in Mutiny
On The Bounty.






The island is small, not much larger than Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay. It is a long way from any other populated land mass. There was a plan for some of the residents to come aboard, talk with us, and offer some handcrafted items for sale.
Our Captain learned that more than 20 Pitcairn residents are ill with the flu, so that idea was scrapped. We dropped off some items that the islanders had requested, everything from toilet paper to chicken breasts to whiskey. Then we were on our way.
