<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">famed whaler</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for ahab that I've seen before include "Captain hunting the whale Moby-Dick" , "one who hunted whales" , "Captain hunting Moby Dick" , "Jezebel's husband, wicked king in the 'Old testament'" , "Moby Dick's pursuer" .)
