Puzzle Flaming Pirate Ship Ocracoke Outer Banks

“It's said that on the night of the new moon each September, a strange and ghastly sight can be seen off of Ocracoke Island. There in the waters off the Outer Banks, each year on that one night, a phantom ship engulfed in flames floats silently by the island and disappears into the night. How this came to be takes us back to the early days of the North Carolina colony, to days of settlers and pirates, and to the reign of Queen Anne.” https://northcarolinaghosts.com/coast/flaming-ship-ocracoke/
