GHOST SHIP: Legend has it that when it appears on the horizon, it is a sure sign of misfortune for sailors. It is said that in the 16th century, a Dutch captain (Cornelius Vanderdecker) braved the storms of the Cape of Good Hope with such arrogance that an old man appeared to him, condemning him to wander eternally with his ship until the Day of Judgment, unless he found the love of a true woman. 19th-century watercolor print.
