Gallman, Karin Gleiter Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c8288 Chapter pages in book: (p. 498 - 512) 13 Modern Whaling The last three decades of the nineteenth century were a period of decline for American whaling.' The market for oil was weak because of the advance of petroleum production, and only the demand for bone kept right whalers and bowhead whalers afloat. It was against this background that the Norwegian whaling industry emerged and grew to formidable size. Oddly enough, the Norwegians were not after bone-the whales they hunted, although baleens, yielded bone of very poor quality. They were after oil, and oil of an inferior sort. How was it that the Norwegians could prosper, selling inferior oil in a declining market? The answer is that their costs were exceedingly low. The whales they hunted existed in profusion along the northern (Finnmark) coast of Norway and could be caught with a relatively modest commitment of man and vessel time. The area from which the hunters came was poor. Labor was cheap; it also happened to be experienced in maritime pursuits, particularly in the sealing industry and in hunting small whales-the bottlenose whale and the white whale (narwhal).

  • Sharing the Catches of Whales in the Southern Hemisphere
    SHARING THE CATCHES OF WHALES IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE S.J. Holt 4 Upper House Farm,Crickhowell, NP8 1BZ, Wales (UK) <[email protected]> 1. INTRODUCTION What historians have labelled modern whaling is largely a twentieth century enterprise. Its defining feature is the cannon-fired harpoon with an explosive head, launched from a motorised catcher boat.1 This system was first devised about 1865 by Svend Foyn, the son of a ship-owner from Tønsberg, in Vestfold, southeast Norway. Foyn believed that “God had let the whale inhabit the waters for the benefit and blessing of mankind, and consequently I considered it my vocation to promote these fisheries”. He has been described as “...a man with great singularity of vision, since virtually everything he did ...was dedicated to the profitable killing of whales”. Foyn’s system allowed for the first time the systematic hunting and killing of the largest and fastest swimming species of whales, the rorquals, a sub-class of whalebone whales (Mysticetes spp.). The basic technology was supplemented by significant developments in cabling, winches and related hardware and in processing. Powered vessels could not only tow the dead rorquals back to land bases quickly and thus in good condition for processing, but could provide ample compressed air to keep them afloat. Modern whaling could not, however, have become a major industry world-wide, without other technological developments. Other kinds of whales had already been killed in enormous numbers, primarily for their oil, for over a century.2 In 1905 it was discovered that oil from baleen whales could be hydrogenated and the resulting product could be used in the manufacture of soap and food products.

  • Grand Banks Dory
    Photo Essay: How to Build a Nova Scotian Grand Banks Dory By Jeff Spira Plans available at: http://SpiraInternational.com/ How to Build a Nova Scotian Grand Banks Dory By Jeff Spira In Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, throughout the 1800's the finest dories in the world were being built by two different boat builders. These craft served as fishing boats launched from the decks of schooners and fishing practically in the middle of the North Atlantic, year-round. This Nova Scotian was derived from the original Grand Banks fishing dories. You can launch these boats through the surf, keep going in weather that drives everyone else back to the beach, and load more into this boat than boats substantially larger. A better rough water pulling boat cannot be found anywhere. The boat shown in these photos was built by Kevin Power in 2017. Like all of the Spira International Ply on Frame boats, the frames are built first. The plans give you precise dimensions to build the frames The strongback is built next. It serves as a kind of jig to ensure the boat is straight and proportioned correctly. The plans detail this member as well. The stands may be built from any extra or scrap lumber you may have access to. The strongback also holds the elements up so that you can work on it at a comfortable height. The centers of the frames are cut with a notch for the keelson to be attached. Note that the frame cutouts are wider than the keelson. This leaves gaps on either side of the frames that become limber holes, that let water collect to the lowest point of the boat and make draining (with drain plugs) easier when the boat is out of the water or pumping the bilge when the boat is in the water.

Huntington Beach, California, U.S.A. http://www.SpiraInternational.com Copyright © 2006, by Jeffrey J. Spira All Rights Expressly Reserved This e-book may be printed, copied and distributed freely so long as it is not altered in any way. Selecting a Boat to Build The Style of Boat For Your Needs Before you ever start building a boat, you should first consider what type of boat you want and/or need. I say and/ or, because a lot of people think they want a certain type of boat, due to current styles or some fanciful dream, when they actually should be considering an entirely different design. Let's discuss some of the basics of boat hulls so that you'll be able to look at a hull and figure out how it will perform. Displacement Hulls All boats operating at low speeds are displacement hulls. This includes planing hulls going slow. What defines a displacement hull is that the boat displaces the weight of water equal to the boat's weight (including the weight of the people and cargo inside.) Sailboats, canoes, kayaks, most dories, rowboats, trawlers, and cargo ships are all examples of displacement hulls. For a displacement hull to move through the water it must push water aside as it passes, then after it passes water comes back together to refill fill the space taken up by the hull.
