S2 E9: Whaling and Sealing | RNZ

An important detail about what started the Boyd Massacre, is the the chief's son was expected to work his passage, but refused, as he saw such work as beneath him and so as punishment for insubordination, he was flogged and denied rations for the day, which was a common punishment for insubordinate sailors at the time
