- numbers of sharks, seemingly rising from out the dark waters beneath the hull, maliciously snapped at the blades of the oars, every time they dipped in the water; and in this way accompanied the boat with their bites.

- The source entity 'whale-boats' (plural) describes 'Smaller boats deployed from the Pequod for hunting whales'. Candidate 6, labeled 'whaling boats' (plural), describes 'Three small boats launched from the main ship, used by the crew to pursue and harpoon the whale'. Both entities refer to the same collective group of small boats used for whaling, with highly similar labels and descriptions. The type 'boat' (source) and 'vessel' (candidate) are also consistent.
