Ant Middleton steps into Captain Bligh's shoes as, joined by a carpenter, a doctor and some specialist sailors, they battle storms, reefs and shark-infested waters recreating the voyage taken following the mutiny on the Bounty.
The crew land on a tropical island and hunt for vital food and water. However, on board their tiny boat the pressures of hunger and cramped conditions lead to talk of mutiny.
The 8 remaining men leave the island on the most perilous leg of their journey - a 1600 mile passage through the treacherous Coral Sea. With no wind, rotting food and a nasty case of cabin fever the threat of mutiny still hangs over them.
The crew face the challenge of finding a way through the Great Barrier Reef. If they get it wrong this vast wall of coral could rip open the bottom of their tiny wooden boat.
The men embark upon the final leg of their journey, a 1,200 mile voyage to the island of Timor - but in blistering temperatures they face debilitating, life-threatening dehydration.
