N1 - Funding Information:
This research was conducted as part of the project research “Study on influences of the global warming and rapid economic growth on the marine and atmospheric environment in the East Asia” of RIAM, Kyushu University. This study was supported by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number 26289335. In model experiments, we had the cooperation of Messrs. H. Kano and Y. Chaen (Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Engineering Sciences, Kyushu University). We express our deep gratitude to each.

N2 - Recent years have highlighted that the necessity of ocean data in time and space for the predictions of environmental changes on Earth. As one method of acquiring data, we propose a virtual mooring system using an underwater vehicle. We have developed a disk-type underwater glider. Using the glider, oceanographic observations were conducted in the East China Sea in July, 2016. The details were presented at ISOPE2017. As described in this paper, results of model tests related to course control conducted to improve the performance of virtual mooring are presented. Then the influence of a vertical tail wing on motion control is discussed.
