The Bounty's in Victoria, BC right now (hear that Tikiwahine?). It's going on to Tacoma, San Francisco, LA, San Diego and Hawaii - the full schedule is here. I'm watching the DVD of the '62 Mutiny On The Bounty right now (I'm taking an extended intermission) and loving it lots. The 2 disc edition has lots of bonus features, mostly about the construction of the replica ship (in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia) and all the places it toured. Here's some screen caps:

In Victoria harbor

In Seattle - docked next to the Polynesia Restaurant (more pix here)

At the New York World's Fair 1964. At the fair they built a "Tahitian village" for it:

Outrigger also built for use in the film
