The oddity, explained

Why is Eunice unusual?

Eunice appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Eunice was a cutter built in and lost on 1982. Eunice broke from its moorings at Fowlers Bay during a storm in c.1982 and foundered after striking the jetty. It was raised and towed to a position about 750 metres south-east of the jetty where it was scuttled. Heritage Atlas treats that specific classification-and-description combination as the oddity; the score is a comparative discovery signal, not proof of mystery or the supernatural.

Evidence and further exploration

The coordinate, category and description remain tied to the cited source. Comparative oddness helps discovery; it does not add facts that the source does not provide.
