In December 1787 the HMS Bounty left England with Haiti destiny to transport breadfruit to the Caribbean, finding a big storm that forced them to change course, arriving at Haiti three months later. This delay forced them to stay on the island for several months until again it was possible to collect breadfruit buds. In this stay the crew got used to the natives customs and established relationships with women of Haiti, almost forgetting their status as English sailors. After many difficulties by Bligh to impose discipline again, they began their journey on April 4th, 1789, when the mutiny was produced 24 days later. Bligh sailed over 3500 nautical miles for 47 days to the port of the Dutch colony of Coupang, losing only one of his men on the journey.
