==Gameplay==
The mini-game consists of 2 teams of two players, who must race to the finish riding [[Cheep Cheep]]-shaped submarines, one red and the other blue. The upper half of the screen shows the red team, while the lower half shows the blue team, and the divider contains a small, straight line which shows how far each team is from the goal. The first team across the goal wins.

The upper half of the screen shows the Red Team, while the lower half shows the Blue Team, and the divider contains a small straight line that shows how far each team is from the goal. The players must reach the goal by taking turns pumping the lever to accelerate their submarine; if a player gets tired, their movement rate will visibly slow down. Players should switch places at appropriate times in order to maintain their submarine's pace and prevent either one from becoming extremely tired, though it is possible to reach the goal quickly without switching at all. The first team across the goal wins.
