A long rowboat, pointed at both ends and designed to move and turn swiftly, formerly used in the pursuit and harpooning of whales.

The highly specialized and dangerous technique of harpooning narwhal from a kayak is practiced by only a handful of people in Northern Greenland.

Mr Mundus, too, once made the centrepiece of a classic "Jaws" scene, harpooning a great white in 75 feet of water off a beach where children played.
