Answer:
1.
"Their eyes glanced level"
I'm pretty sure this is referring to everyone on the boat, or a group of which includes the author himself.
2.
"The oiler and the correspondent rowed the tiny boat."
I find this funny, because whenever I go to picture it, it makes me imagine a small little tiny boat with 2 huge guys trying to stay on it at once.
3.
"The captain, hesitating in the front, after the boat had climbed a
great wave"
Their boat is super small, and their climbing a giant wave. I'm pretty sure this is irony.

"It was a long afternoon. A changed tide tried to force them southward, but wind and wave said northward. Far ahead, where coast-line, sea, and sky formed their mighty angle, there were little dots which seemed to indicate a city on the shore." (Section IV)
Identify an example of dramatic irony in your novel or short story. If your story has not presented any examples of dramatic irony, describe your own suggestion for adding dramatic irony to a scene from your novel or short story.
"It is fair to say here that there was not a life-saving station within twenty miles in either direction, but the men did not know this fact and in consequence they made dark and opprobrious remarks concerning the eyesight of the nation's life-savers." (Section IV)
This quote is an example of dramatic irony. Although the characters knew there was help on the land, they did not know how far away it really is.
