Ani: "the ghost ship has about 310 rupees next to the ghost ship's triforce shard chest. You can leaf pump over to the ledge w/o killing the enemies. Collect the rupees, save&quit, then reload file and go back to ghost ship. Cafde does it in his J version run and he says it takes about 45 seconds to get 310 rupees, I'm pretty sure that's faster than us doing 101 rupee trick twice for 202 rupees"

Asterisk denotes required plot advancement in fairly rigid order. Things may be sprinkled in between though.
My head hurts. This route may once again have blatant errors, I spent a lot of time with Ani constructing it, but didn't spend a lot of time reviewing. I think Forest Water Light arrows skip may actually not be viable. If you have to get Cabana forest water at any time before traveling to get Makar, the sidetracking has been calculated to be almost definitely slower. If you can get the first forest water during getting Makar, run it down 20 minutes for Cabana, then reget it after Cabana and still run down 20 minutes before Hyrule, it is viable but very difficult.
If you have Needle Rock Isle Chart and Islet of Steel Chart and Bird's Peak Rock Chart, we speculate that tingle will want to decipher the Needle Rock Isle chart LAST, meaning he won't do it on our first trip. This actually causes some minor annoyance.
Superswimming/ Superswim drowning will always be better than Ballad of Gales if you're swimming less than or equal to 3 grid squares away. Drowning takes 30 seconds, so does Ballad of Gales, so does superswimming 3 grid squares. If you drown, you start in the boat at the closest of the 9 points in the grid square you would get if you divided it into a 3x3. I was trying to remove Ballad of Gales when constructing this route, but I'm not sure if it's viable yet. This route should be within 5-10 minutes of optimal under the current knowledge, but the swimming distance can probably be more optimized.
Things that need tested:
1: I need a time estimate for how long it takes to get in M&C without Ballad of Gales. We could very well skip ballad of gales if it's not more than a minute and a half.
2: Similarly how long does it take to get into Diamond Steppe Island without a hookshot by superswimming.
3: Can you actually get Needle Rock Isle and Islet of Steel charts before forest haven forest water timer runs out?
4: Probably more to be added here...
