Whale Boat: A Row Back in Time

[Sohave]

The Inuits in Greenland were even more creazy when it came to whaling. they would use a Kayak to go whaling and they had no mothership so they had to carry the dead whale all the way back to their settlement. Yet this is still pretty cool. Nice boat.

WHALING IS A FEDERAL CRIME IN US:

U.S. GPO Access [CITATION: 50CF-R230.3]

CHAPTER II--NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE (NMS), NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION (NOAA), DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE (DOC)

"It is unlawful for a person to: engage in whaling in violation of the US Convention, IWC regulations, commit an Act or breach US Commerce regulations; to ship, transport, purchase, sell, offer for sale, import, export or possess a whale or whale meat products."

I don't think they will be using it for its original purpose.
