What whaling skills did the Native Americans pass on to American settlers did Native American continue to work in the whaling industry after it moved to deeper water?

Native Americans shared essential whaling skills with American settlers, including techniques for hunting, processing, and utilizing whales, as well as knowledge of navigation and the coastal environment. They taught settlers how to construct and use whaleboats effectively. After whaling moved to deeper waters, many Native Americans continued to participate in the industry, often taking on roles as skilled crew members or guides, leveraging their extensive maritime expertise.
