The level begins on a yard that is connected to a large mast. Another yard is ahead higher up with a [[DK Barrel]] and a Click-Clack on it. After passing a [[barrel]] in the same area, the heroes find a third yard just past a small gap. This yard is tilted upwards. A few Neeks march on it. A set of ropes is ahead near a few more years that stick out of the side of the screen. One [[banana]] is on each of the two yards. If the Kongs climb up the ropes, they can reach a fourth full yard with more bananas and a Click-Clack on it. There is another yard just ahead, but a Zinger is on the edge of it. The letter K is also above the Zinger. If they dodge the insect, they can continue along the area and pass a Click-Clack. After they reach the end of an additional yard with another Click-Clack on it, they can find more ropes to climb up on. Bananas line the left side of the ropes, which lead to a yard with another Click-Clack on it. A tilted yard is next to this with a few Neeks and a DK Barrel on it. There are two additional yards placed on the other side of this platform. The bottom one leads to the letter O and some ropes that can be climbed to reach the [[DK Coin]]. Klingers climb along these ropes. The top yard can assist the heroes in jumping to a set of ropes that they can climb up to reach a tightrope connected to two masts. Bananas are all along the rope. A yard supporting the Star Barrel sticks out of the end of the screen.

Template:Levelbox Mainbrace Mayhem is the second level of Donkey Kong Land 2 and of the first world, Gangplank Galleon.

Mainbrace Mayhem is a vertical level featuring many ropes and masts that Diddy and Dixie must climb to reach the end, much like the eponymous Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest level. On the ship yards, the Kongs encounter Click-Clacks, Neeks, and Krunchas. Around the rope-climbing segments, the Kongs encounter many Zingers and Klingers. The Kongs can take some offbeat paths to find various collectible, the DK Coin, and a Bonus Barrel.

The level begins on a yard that is connected to a large mast. Another yard is ahead higher up with a DK Barrel and a Click-Clack on it. After passing a barrel in the same area, the heroes find a third yard just past a small gap. This yard is tilted upwards. A few Neeks march on it. A set of ropes is ahead near a few more years that stick out of the side of the screen. One banana is on each of the two yards. If the Kongs climb up the ropes, they can reach a fourth full yard with more bananas and a Click-Clack on it. There is another yard just ahead, but a Zinger is on the edge of it. The letter K is also above the Zinger. If they dodge the insect, they can continue along the area and pass a Click-Clack. After they reach the end of an additional yard with another Click-Clack on it, they can find more ropes to climb up on. Bananas line the left side of the ropes, which lead to a yard with another Click-Clack on it. A tilted yard is next to this with a few Neeks and a DK Barrel on it. There are two additional yards placed on the other side of this platform. The bottom one leads to the letter O and some ropes that can be climbed to reach the DK Coin. Klingers climb along these ropes. The top yard can assist the heroes in jumping to a set of ropes that they can climb up to reach a tightrope connected to two masts. Bananas are all along the rope. A yard supporting the Star Barrel sticks out of the end of the screen.

From here, the Kongs can find a platform connected to a mast to their right. It can help them reach a long, tilted yard with some Neeks and a DK Barrel on it. There are two more yards at the top of this platform. While the yard on the right leads to a rope that can be traveled down to reach a Bonus Barrel, the left yard can help them progress to a larger set of ropes that they can climb upwards on. Click-Clacks and Neeks also walk along the yards. A Klinger attacks the primates as they climb the ropes. At the top of the ropes, they can notice another yard with a Neek on it. If they cross this yard, they can find an additional yard and a tightrope that they can climb along to reach some collectibles and the letter N. A long set of ropes can be found at the other side of the previously mentioned yard. It is infested with Klingers, but also has a few bananas on it. When the ropes are climbed, a yard with a pair of Krunchas and the letter G can be found. There is a platform connected to a wooden mast on the other side of it. If the heroes progress from here, they can reach another yard with a spring on it. They complete the level when they bounce on the spring.
