When was whaling a major industy in whitby?

Around the middle of the 18th century, there was an expansion of the port's fishing to include whaling. Between 1753 and 1837, there were 577 whaling expeditions. The most famous of the whaling captains was Captain William Scoresby(1760-1829), who invented the crow's nest in 1807. Over the years, this industry declined, with the number of whales caught decreasing, and by 1837 the last ship The Camden made its final whaling voyage.
