Bob-

I think that ship in Sydney Harbour was a different Bounty.

There is another summary at gCaptain Facebook Forum of the 8th day of testimony and questioning. No new revelations. But Mario Vitonne observed that the professional crew, the officers, were much more circumspect in their answers than the deckhands. The truth, so to speak, will take a longer period of time to surface.

There is a vivid description of how it was to be working in the engine room with the water rising around one, trying to keep the generators going to operate the pumps, as various electrical components died a fiery death.
