Especially since it's totally FALSE! The Captain he been the skipper of the Bounty for 20 years.
if you look at historical records many vessels were ordered out to sea in unfavorable conditions by their owners throughout history.
I have no doubt that the bounty's skipper did everything in his power to save his ship at the cost of his life just as so many other vessels did because of being ordered to sea by their owners in the past. My comment was not one of disrespect for anyone just a statement pointing out whaat traditionally has been done historically.
If i owned the Bounty i certainly would not have ordered her to the bahamas at that time wouyld you? Would any of you put to sea under those conditions? I think not. Two weeks ago i was caught offshore when the bar was closed and know how easy it is for a skipper to mis judge conditions. I'll bet there isnt a one of you that has any real experiance that hasnt at some time or other and close to visiting davy jones. Thats the nature of the sport
