As a shanty, rather than a forebitter? I also very much doubt it. But commentaries mention that THIS song actually did enter the seafaring tradition, unlike most other composed "sea-songs". And if this song survived mostly among seamen, how they sang it would be rather TO the point.

On the other hand, I personally believe sailors harmonized on forebitters just as much as other folks tended to harmonize, and my comments on tempo were not specific to seafaring tradition. In short, to the point, yes; different, no (at least in these two ways.)
