The oddity, explained

Why is Sultana unusual?

Sultana appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Sultana was a cutter built in and lost on 03/07/1902. Broke away from its moorings during a gale, washed against the jetty and totally wrecked. 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.
