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.
