    The labels 'box line' and 'box-line' are nearly identical. Both entities are described as 'whaling_equipment'. The source describes 'spare coils of line' that facilitate tossing a second iron, while the candidate describes 'a specific section of the whale-line... coiled upon a box in the bows'. These descriptions are highly consistent, indicating the same specific component of the whaling line system.
