Your guide
Conrad Humphreys
A legendary figure in world sailing, Conrad has competed in the Vendée Globe, the Ocean Race, and the BT Global Challenge, which he won as the youngest skipper in the race’s history.
He skippered Bounty in Channel 4’s acclaimed series Mutiny, retracing Captain Bligh’s 3,600-mile open-boat survival voyage across the Pacific. He knows how to make seven complete strangers feel entirely at home on a historic wooden boat. That combination is what Bounty & Hope is built on.

The vessel
Meet Bounty
Bounty starred in Channel 4’s hit series Mutiny, the authentic replica of Captain Bligh’s open launch, the vessel in which he made one of history’s most extraordinary survival voyages across 3,600 miles of the Pacific.
Every plank carries the weight of a real story: a boat designed to survive the Pacific now takes you into one of Britain's most remarkable stretches of water. History you can feel underfoot.
Sailing inside the UK's first National Marine Park.
Plymouth Sound is home to 1,000+ species of international importance and 600+ historic shipwrecks. Every voyage is a journey through living history.
