The oddity, explained
Why is May unusual?
May appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as May was a cutter built in and lost on 10/03/1951. At 8:30pm May ran onto rocks under the Cape Willoughby lighthouse. The vessel was badly holed and was beached. 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.
