2. Carroll A. Deering

The case of Carroll A. Deering is as strange as the "Mary Celeste," and it was also claimed as one of the most acted upon mysteries of the sea.

The huge five-masted schooner was built in Bathe, Maine, in 1919 by the G.G. Deering Company.

She was found run aground off Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, in 1921. Its crew was mysteriously missing.

The Deering is one of the most written-about maritime mysteries in history, with claims that it was a victim of the Bermuda Triangle, although the evidence points towards a mutiny or possibly piracy.
