    I’m pretty sure this is not the type of mirage you linked (which would be above the real horizon) but rather one that is below the real horizon. That is, the ship is seen above the real horizon, but the water near the horizon is hidden by a mirage of the sky. You can faintly make out the real horizon, as well.

      I think that’s just shadows, but I could be wrong. It’s some type of superior mirage. Title edited for accuracy.
