Number 7 is Werner Randall's hydroplane and number 8 is Florence Fahlheit's shallow bottom boat.
Both of them are small hulls.

A series of curves with a small radius of 10R.
A dead heat was also fought there, with the boats passing and being passed.

"Oh, ......?"
Rubina, who was watching the screen, shouted in disbelief.
The number 10 boat had begun to lag behind.

As a semi-submersible boat, the number 10 was not as good at small maneuvers as the other boats.
The slight difference appeared in the series of curves, and the boat, which had once risen to third place, dropped one position to fourth. He dropped one place to 4th and then to 5th.

"I guess I'm still inexperienced. ......"
Of course, I'm talking about Rubina.

The ten vessels passed through a zigzag. The next section is a combination of short straights and corners.
All the boats use jet thrusters, which makes it difficult to get behind them.

By moving the stern in front of the followers trying to overtake them, we can expect not only to get in the way, but also to slow them down due to the jet stream.

Shallow-bottomed boats can turn left or right at will. Taking advantage of this, they weaved their way between the boats ahead of them and finally came up to second place.

"Wow, you are making the most of the boat's characteristics.
Jin sees that the most suitable boats for this course are 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8.
The hull that emphasizes maneuverability rather than stability is advantageous.

"Almost a lap, huh?"
Jin thinks that the second lap is the best part of the race, when the boats have figured out their course.
The 10 boats then head for the final turn, the R50.

The technical course is only about 30 meters wide, and three boats can barely run side by side.
On the other hand, the straight line after the 50R is 200 meters wide, and it was an area where we did not have to worry about the jet stream of the preceding ship.

The boats are accelerating rapidly with a huge splash.
The crowd's voices are getting louder and louder.
The first boat, numbered 1, is speeding down the middle of the wide course.

Each of the following boats chose a course that would not be subjected to the jet stream of the boat ahead of them.
The slight course change will cause a slight delay, but there is more than enough opportunity to make up for it on the straight course that stretches for the next five kilometers.
In fact, some of the boats seem to be squeezing out more than their full power, and the positions of the boats in 7th to 10th place are changing rapidly.

Number 1 is in position to run away as fast as he can. The top speed is over 130 kilometers per hour.
Each of the following boats is also going about the same speed.
This is already a dangerous speed for a ship controlled by a man, but the operator of the ship is a golem. It knows no fear and has a reaction time several times that of a human.

Furthermore, the assistant who monitors the power output and the behavior of the hull is also a golem.
This top speed is not dangerous as long as the stability of the mana driver, which supplies mana to the propulsion system, and the aether converter, which converts free mana into mana, are also monitored.
After running a straight line of 5 kilometers in a little over 2 minutes, number 1 plunges into the first corner of the 20 R without slowing down much.

By this time, the first group was down to 4 boats, 1,2,3,5. 4, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 were slightly behind.
The differences were the result of a combination of factors such as hull shape, completeness, stability, power, and maneuverability.
The differences in each of these categories are very small. However, when taken together, they have a synergistic effect,

But when you put them all together, you can see the synergistic effects that led to this result.
No wonder Jin and the spectators were so enthralled. In a sense, a head-to-head race is not so interesting. ...... It must be painful for Jin to hear this.
At this stage, it was not clear what position Rubina's number 10 was in as it was moving underwater.
