In chapter 131 the Pequod comes across another boat named Delight which as Ishmael notices is horribly misnamed. As the boat goes by they release a dead body into the water. At this point in the book I was extremely frustrated with everyone on the Pequod for going along with Ahab’s obsessive quest. Everything that happens is a bad omen, it bothers me that none of the crew members really notice this even after hearing all of the other boats say to stay away from the white whale. I wonder if any of the crew members really ever thought they were going to come back alive. The next chapter Ahab actually does mention his family although quickly enough his mind goes back to Moby Dick. Ahab recognizes himself as pitiful but also notes that he thinks he would not be able to stop..He is actually addicted to hunting the whale.
