Nobody knows what happened to the lifeboat of the half brig Mary Celeste in November or December 1872. Benjamin Spooner Briggs, captain and minority shareholder and owner, thought that the three lifeboats needed to be replaced even though historians question whether James H. Winchester, majority owner and shareholder, ever complied. There was no evidence of lifeboats having been on the hermaphrodite brig in question other than a frayed halyard that may have served as a towline along with unexplained marks that may have occurred in the course of mooring a rickety lifeboat on the deck.
