Bligh then set off for Timor. with just a sextant and a pocket watch to guide him, no compass or maps. Bligh navigated the voyage by memory. They made the trip in 48 days, a distance of 3,618 nautical miles. All the remaining men survived the journey. Many historians speak of Bligh's accomplishment with great admiration. When Bligh returned to England in 1790, there was a court martial for the loss of his vessel, and he was "honorably acquitted". Bligh would later publish accounts of his adventure, the first of hundreds of books, articles and movies written about the mutiny on the Bounty.
