Sorry, Gary, but it is my recollection that Captain Bligh was allowed to bring navigation instruments from the Bounty aboard the longboat before being set adrift by the mutineers. This is supported by the fact that ship's boats were routinely used for travel from the ship to other ships or the shore and not as just lifeboats and so the presence of an "emergency navigation kit" would be highly unlikely.
