1. The Mary Celeste
By Lauryn Handoga

2. What is the Mary Celeste?
The Mary Celeste is a mystery about a ghost ship that sailed off with people but was found with none
The boat was a brigantine with a history of bad luck
It was owned by many people all did encounter its fowl luck
The boat was first named the Amazon but was changed to The Mary Celeste by Captain Benjamin Briggs

3. The Evidence Left Behind
A mini piano ,tobacco ,food, sewing machine, oil skins, raincoats, pipes where some of the many items left on the ship
All items seemed to be dropped in a hurry
A very large wood stove was moved across the floor
The life boat was also missing

4. The People on Board
There were 10 people aboard the ship when it first set off
Captain Benjamin Briggs , wife Sarah Briggs , 2 year old daughter Sophia and 7 crew men
Benjamin had sailed 2 other boats before purchasing the Mary Celeste

5. About the Boat Was first called Amazon
First ten years of sailing she was involved in several accidents
Made by Joshua Dewis in 1861
Changing the name was suppose to reverse the luck

6. Theories
The most scientific theory is that there was a sea quake that rocked them off the boat
That there was a leak in the cargo and they thought it was going to explode so they temporarily left the boat but it floated away
A water spout that washed them away off the boat

7. Who Found it
The first mate on the Da Gratia spotted the ship through a spyglass
He bored the ship and sailed it
He found it on Dec 4,1872
The boat was said to look very creepy sailing alone

8. My Opinion
Firstly I believe that what happened was that they temporarily left the ship but then it floated away
I believe this because it sounds very reasonable and like it could happen
I also believe this because a life boat was gone
