  1. Idk, I feel very happy with what Drach already has going on for himself! Now he is even accepted as a serious warship historian by the US Naval Institute. And if he tried to do a "TV Show" it may take up too much of his time for probably about the same amount of what he's already making. And he wouldn't be able to do the amount of research that he already does. Cuz Drach is able to do a large amount of research in order to answer questions for his Drydock and to keep doing his "5 minute guides" too. Why would he even need a "TV show?" He has his own channel here on YouTube! The channel also allows him the freedom to travel and visit museum ships. If a certain college is seeking a "Historian Speaker" to make a speech at their school, I wonder how much they would pay Drach to be that speaker? Plus now that he is a Dad a TV show would pull him away from home, but he can stay home & work on the channel and still spend time with his new child. And that is "Priceless!"

  2. I'm not sure of all the facts in the case of the Mary Celeste & her missing crew but I had another idea. Maybe she had run aground enough to stop her but not enough to damage her. And they are right next to a small island or land in any case. And so the ship being stuck and maybe high winds had started blowing the ship in a way that the crew thought it may capsize. So everyone grabs what they can launch a lifeboat & go ashore. Because the ship is grounded they don't think of trying to have mooring lines & try to secure the ship to the shore in any way. Or just plain don't have enough rope to secure it. While they are ashore the tide rises & the wind changes direction and all of a sudden the ship is sailing away without the crew. Or maybe just maybe she was taken over by a pirate ship. Where they were taken prisoners & put in the brig of the pirate ship. And the pirate ship decided to tow the Mary Celeste. But a storm came up & they were forced to part with the Mary Celeste in high winds & waves. And the crew just disappeared into the world, not wanting to be held liable for the ship being lost.
