Or.. just as likely, ship was carrying a load of ordance, that with being packed to the gills of.. (including... in the life boats, as well...
) some... sailors, slipped away with a life boat, intending to continue on to the designated delivery point...
Unfortunately, for them... some spark or flaming debris from the mother ship, going up like... a roman candle, ignited said stores on board & well... those poor hapless, souls... may have just as well stayed aboard that Maru.... for all intents &purposes.
