A half or hermaphrodite brig partway between a barkentine and a schooner describes what Mary Celeste looked like. The Canadian-built, Canada- and United States-registered ship had billeted bowsprit, hydrodynamic hull, schooner-like mast with triangular fore- and aft-sails, single deck, shipboards packed with rock salt, square-rigged foremast and squared-off stern. The cargo ship prompted cost-saving, profit-making measures because of maximized load holds and minimized deck quarters.
