What is the name of the schooner that carries Ishmael and Queequeg to Nantucket? It is the Moss.
In the early chapters of Moby-Dick, Ishmael and Queequeg travel from New Bedford toward Nantucket to join a whaling voyage. They load their belongings aboard the Moss, described as a small Nantucket packet schooner.
The Moss is only a temporary stage in their journey. After arriving in Nantucket, Ishmael examines the available whaling ships and ultimately selects the Pequod, the vessel commanded by Captain Ahab. The Moss is therefore distinct from the Pequod.
The Grampus, Town-Ho, and Rachel are other ships associated with Moby-Dick, but none is the schooner that transports the pair to Nantucket. The correct canonical answer is the Moss.
