Hydro Thunder/Ship Graveyard

You start on a long straight (seeing the repetition yet?) which narrows in the middle and then widens back out quickly. Towards the end a left hand turn takes you onto another straight where you'll see a pair of ships to the left as you go down that are moored away from the quay. You want to be on the left side of these boats to grab the 9 second boost that's at the left of the second. You can do this safely either by going left before the first boat or between the two. Nip through at your comfortable point & get the 9 seconder before turning right and rejoining the main courseway ready to turn right before the liner that's in front of you. Head up alongside the liner & take a left at it's end. Here you will find a 4 second boost straight ahead & the main track will then meander to the left before revealing a check point, ramp and a 4 second boost for you to aim at.

Head slightly left of the ramp as there's a rocky outcrop that prevents you going straight ahead. The track then turns right - you'll notice there's a water fall ahead though & that's where you should be headed. Under the waterfall follow the tunnel as it turns right and head for the ramp to get the 4 second boost - you will need some boost to get the 4 second boost. Again, try to head left off the ramp as by the time you land you'll be on a left turn. Keep going and you will shortly join the main courseway again and soon after see in front a bridge. Try to jump over the middle of the bridge as there's a 9 second boost hidden there.

You are now on a long straight and probably running out of boost if you missed the hidden 9 seconder - make sure you keep some in hand. At the end of the straight is a drop which you should jump off of at about the middle but not keep the boost on. As you fall you will see a pair of courseways, one on top of each other & the top one has a 9 second boost in it's entrance. Use your boost if you need to make sure you enter the upper courseway and collect the 9 second boost before dropping back down to the main courseway & turn slightly left before a sharp right inside a tunnel. The tunnel exit will be in front of you with a 4 second boost moving around just outside. Dodge the wings of the two crashed aeroplanes and line yourself up for the 4 second boost that is ahead. Drop down to the next level and hydro jump at the 4 second boost before making a huge drop down to the next section.

Once you've landed you'll be heading for a check point and a waterfall which, of course, holds a hidden passage. Personally, I don't bother with the hidden course (which contains a sharp rise followed by a 9 second boost, IIRC). Instead I follow the main course left & jump the ramp collecting the 4 second boost. By the time you've landed you'll already be on a right-hand turn with huge waves which severely affect the movement of the boat. Do your best to keep control, stay left and keep tight left around the next turn (which is left-handed). Around the corner is a pair of boosts - a 4 second boost in the middle and a 9 second one at the left - which you will probably have to use your boost to get to as the waves will push you out to the right. After the huge waves you will pass through a check point and enter another tunnel. The tunnel will take you right-left-right and on the final right turn you will see daylight & a 4 second boost hanging in the middle of the courseway. Grab the boost & try to keep fairly straight with the courseway while you head for another ramp with another 4 second boost and eventually the finish line.
