The oddity, explained
Why is Vera unusual?
Vera appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Vera was a cutter built in and lost on 26/07/1915. On the 26 July 1915 the Vera dragged its anchor and drifted onto the rocks near Cape du Couedic jetty. The master of the vessel was J. Ticklie. The master and two crew members escaped the wreck. The vessel was carrying a cargo of crayfish. There was no h. 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. Compare nearby records and the linked country or category collection to understand how this entry relates to places supported by the same governed evidence.
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.
