Of all the tales from our big blue oceans, the eerie stories of ghost ships are easily the most terrifying.

The crews of these mysterious ships suddenly vanish into thin air, leaving the abandoned vessels to sail for days or even years on the endless ocean waves.

While many believe these spooky stories are all works of fiction, unmanned ships scarily

almost a decade before it had turned up in Myanmar.

This added another confusing layer to the ever-growing enigma.

Had the ship really spent nine years drifting aimlessly across the South Pacific, South Atlantic,

and Indian oceans?

If not, how had it reached the other side of the Asian continent without being spotted even once?
