Recognition of environmental impacts and of human actions are arguments for Mary Celeste. Arguments against the hermaphrodite brig blame the cargo-laden ship for inherent bad luck between launching in May 1861 and reef-grounding in January 1885. The fault is not in the final product but in the quality of constituent materials, craftsmanship, ecosystem stress, maintenance schedules and use.
