Mark's story of Jesus taming the furious squall at sea (Mark 4:35-39) seems 
to have been taken from Jonah, Isaiah, Psalm, and Proverbs.  This is 
described in the article, "Jesus Stills the Storm" at

http://sol.sci.uop.edu/~jfalward/Jesus_Stills_Storm.htm

There is one element in Mark's story I can't account for; perhaps list 
members might be able to help.  Why does Mark tell us that "other boats are 
with him" (Mark 4:36)?
