Gangplank Galleon is the name of the first world of both Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. It takes place on the large pirate ship of the same name, docked right next to Crocodile Isle. Every level takes place some place on the pirate ship. The galleon has many chasms inside, the masts form a good clamber system, and inside the ship is a flooded caliginous cargo. The masts, hold and deck host many enemies, the most common being Neeks, Klomps, and Krunchas. There are a few aquatic enemies in the flooded cargo hold, including Lockjaws, Shuri, and Puftups. A large Mini-Necky boss, Krow, appears in his own crow's nest at the peak of the area.

Because of the German translation of the level Lockjaw's Locker, the Gangplank Galleon has been believed to be a reference to The Flying Dutchman, a ship whose captain was cursed to roam the seas forever on that ship. Gangplank Galleon even bears a resemblance to the ghost ship.

In the instruction manual for both Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and its Game Boy Advance version, the first world is incorrectly named Gangplank Galley, despite the original version's manual even mentioning Gangplank Galleon.[1][2]

There are five levels and a boss level in both Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. Though their names are identical, their layouts are drastically different, to the point of them being different levels:

  • Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
  • Pirate Panic The first level, Pirate Panic is a simple, straightforward level that takes place on a ship deck.
