The sinking of the Mary Rose in 1545 was primarily attributed to a combination of design flaws and navigational errors. The ship was top-heavy due to its heavy cannons and insufficient ballast, which made it unstable in rough seas. Additionally, during the battle against the French, the crew may have failed to properly manage the sails and the ship's maneuvering, contributing to its capsizing. Thus, the fault lies with a combination of design shortcomings and human error.
