I don't think Alex's CN is so good
I realize Bligh was a good guy...maybe the best guy...to take an open boat halfway across the Pacific, but to deliver a production cruiser to the BVIs, maybe not so much. His better qualities seemed to emerge only under the duress of imminent death. Me, I prefer a more measured approach in a skipper.
