Slate states, "The gunner stands on a forward platform to direct the movements of the boat." View of the gunner in the ship's bow. Next, he is seen manning a harpoon gun and directing the ship''s movement. Slate reads: "The harpoon hits the bulls eye and away goes the whale under water at a terrific speed." View of heavy line in the rigging that is attached to the harpoon. (Slate says it is a quarter of a mile in length.) View of the whale being hoisted aboard the ship by its flukes. Whaling crew members use wooden poles with harpoon points to maneuver the whale. The whale is tagged with a Norwegian flag and released.
