At first it seemed a mystery to rank alongside that of the Marie Celeste or other ghost ships. Earlier this month a Chinese fishing crew came across a completely deserted ferry floating in the East China Sea.
Wang Weiping, the skipper of the fishing boat that found the liner early on Thursday 300 nautical miles (around 555km) from land, said the ship’s exterior had some marks that suggested a collision but there were no signs of life.
