"So, Rubina's ship has a water-avoidance ward to reduce the drag?"
"Yes, that would be the case.
"That means, the shape of the ship doesn't really matter. ...... So, we are not changing the direction of the ship, only the direction of travel.

Because of the higher average speed, sailing with side thrusters is a step behind.
The number 10 is back to normal sailing again.
He is already halfway through the second lap and has about six kilometers to go. At 120 kilometers per hour, it would take only three minutes to complete the lap.
