Bounty was an enlarged reconstruction of the 1787 Royal Navy sailing ship HMS Bounty. Built in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, in 1960, she was a tall ship often called HMS Bounty. She was not commissioned into the Royal Navy and therefore was not entitled to use HMS as a ship prefix. Bounty sank off North Carolina during Hurricane Sandy on October 29, 2012.
