The Boat trick is something I was really borderline on classifying as a glitch or not, but in the end I decided to do it; the main logic is that you in some way "turn on" the Boat by using it (as opposed to the switch, which it's surmised remotely turns it on temporarily). There's also the fact it doesn't save much time at all (about fifteen seconds, and half of that is backtracking). Staying at full speed while making turns in the boat is hard; I made a small crash here but it lost very little time. Throughout the level the important thing is to kill the Dogs as they get in the way a lot. In the cage bit I missed killing one Dog and had to turn around for it. The last Dog, that I miss killing, is a perfect example of what they can do, although it loses me very little time here. You can boost on the last stretch of water in the Boat, but I didn't have enough health to risk it. I also had to reposition the Boat before getting out.
