Grand Theft Auto Online Yacht FAQ

The Yacht is the newest expensive addition to GTA Online. Here is everything you should know about them.

The inclusion of purchasable yachts in the world of Grand Theft Auto Online was probably one of the biggest features added in since the game launched. By now, most players have far more money than they know what to do with.  Customizable apartments and new guns are wonderful and all, but buying an entire boat is where the game truly shines. Show off your skill and income by sticking it in other people’s faces!

Costs, Functions, and Features

The Yacht is the brand new boat introduced in the recent Executives and Other Criminals Update . The yacht is a full-sized boat with numerous features, a massive bridge, three individual decks, a jacuzzi, and even a helicopter.

Players have a couple of options when speaking with the ship’s captain over the in-game phone, including:

• Helicopter – the player can request a helicopter aboard their yacht, but it will cost them $1000 to have it waiting on the deck.
• Boat – you can also request a boat to be delivered along the shoreline near an anchor point. It will always be a Dinghy, however. This will cost $750.
• Vehicle – Alternatively, you can request your personal vehicle be delivered to the shoreline. This is free of charge.

To gain access to these options, though, you need to purchase the starting yacht for $6,000,000 .

Can You Relocate?

The simple answer to the above question is: yes. The player is fully capable of relocating their brand new super yacht to a variety of unique locations. Such locations (and their individual costs) include:

• Lago Zancudo – $25,000
• North Chumash – $25,000
• Pacific Bluffs – $25,000
• Vespucci Beach – $25,000
• Los Santos International Airport – $25,000
• Terminal – $25,000
• Palomino Highlands – $25,000
• Tatavium Mountains – $25,000
• San Chianski Mountain Range – $25,000
• Mount Gordo – $25,000

Can You Customize?

Again, the answer is yes! You have a couple of options to customize your brand new yacht, each option has a variety of color options to further improve upon the ambient lighting, overall style, and more.

For example, you can select your lighting , which changes every single bulb on the boat to a specific color of your choosing. This works best at night, obviously.

Next, the player can choose their fittings, which include the handrails and whatnot along the yacht. Gold seems to be a personal favorite of many players, though it does add an extra $750,000 onto the cost.

Also, you are fully capable of changing the flag and the name of the flag flying on your yacht. The flags are all of a variety of countries, so yours will probably be there, too.

Lastly, you can select the overall color scheme of the entire boat, making it stand apart from your friend who decided to cramp your style and buy the same thing with their money. There are quite a few options, though white appears to be the most popular as of right now. That should change soon, thankfully.

Is There More Than One?

There are currently three purchasable yachts for the player to spend their hard-earned in-game money on. These include The Orion, The Pisces, and The Aquarius. Each one has its own increasing cost and very specific features and amenities.

• Costs $6,00,000
• Three guest rooms with en-suites
• Large sun deck
• Shitzu Tropic
• Speedophile Seashark

The Pisces:

• Costs $7,000,000
• Buckingham Swift Deluxe
• Pegassi Speeder
• Nagasaki Dinghy
• 2 Speedophile Seasharks

The Aquarius:

• Costs $8,00,000
• Buckingham SuperVolito Carbon
• Lampadati Toro
• 4 Speedophile Seasharks

Overall, any of the three purchasable yachts would be an interesting addition to your vast empire and collection. If you have the money to spend, then why not go for it!

GTA Online: How To Complete The Superyacht Life Missions

The Superyacht Life Missions are a complex series of quests in GTA Online. Here's everything players need to know about them.

Quick Links

What is a superyacht life, mission 1: overboard, mission 2: salvage, mission 3: all hands, mission 4: icebreaker, mission 5: bon voyage.

Unlike most entries in the Grand Theft Auto franchise, Grand Theft Online allows players to breathe life into their characters and explore Southern San Andreas as their own crime lords-to-be. Now outside the confines of the stories of usual Grand Theft Auto protagonists, GTA Online players are left to their own devices to make a name for themselves with a rising criminal empire. That, or just go have explosive mayhem with their friends.

RELATED: GTA Online: Most Important Updates In The Game's History

Thankfully, players who want a genuine GTA experience can rely on missions to give them a semblance of sanity in the game’s setting. One such quest is “A Superyacht Life,” which in itself is a series of six missions that players can pursue with up to three friends. What makes “A Superyacht Life” one of the most memorable quest lines in the hit online installment, and how can players complete it?

Available through the Los Santos Summer Special update released in 2020, “A Superyacht Life” is a questline given to a player or up to four players. This questline is primarily set in the Galaxy Super Yacht , an expensive GTA Online vehicle that players will eventually own.

Similar to other questlines in GTA Online , the ones provided in A Superyacht Life revolve around an interconnected plot point. Players must assist the quest-giver, Captain Brendan Darcy, in various duties involving the usage of the Galaxy Super Yacht. These include undersea missions, cargo retrieval, and even fulfilling the goals of high-end clients.

Accessing The Quests

Players can access "A Superyacht Life" from the Bridge of the Galaxy Super Yacht. From here, they should head to the Captain’s Workstation to load the current mission available to them.

Alternatively, players may be able to use their smartphone to call Captain Brendan Darcy and then choose a Request Job. The current available mission in the series should be made accessible to players. Both these options are available as long as players haven’t completed the questline in full.

When players access this mission, a distressed Captain Darcy informs the player that someone has stolen the yacht’s jetskis (another expensive GTA Online vehicle ) as well as important documents related to both the Captain and the players. The documents specify that they are “permanent residents of international waters.”

First, head to the Vespucci Canals, the last known location of the joyriders. The waterworks can prove tricky ground to eliminate the thieves at first, but the area provides both decent cover and a lot of openings to shoot opponents.

RELATED: Grand Theft Auto 6: Potential Benefits Of Sticking With Multiple Protagonists

The Captain will then inform players that the thieves were part of a Puerto Del Sol yacht club, which means players have to exact revenge against them. To do this, they need to head to the yacht club and sink the 10 boats located there. Players need to do this fast, as one of the boats may attempt to sail away from danger. This second objective is tricky, as this part of the mission is done with a Wanted level that doesn’t lower. The yacht club also has medium-level Security Guards. Moreover, the mission is only completed once players lose their Wanted level as well.

After a successful encounter with thieves, the Captain sends players to their second Grand Theft Auto mission . "Salvage" resembles a more modern take on sea exploration, albeit with a dash of wanton violence. The Captain informs a player of a distress call that has come from a sunken supply ship, the Olifantus, not too far from them. Should they make it in time, they will be able to retrieve the cargo and the loot for themselves.

Retrieving Supplies

Players are first directed to a dredge barge just south of the yacht. Go underwater towards the shipwreck and slowly retrieve the supplies. Players can’t stay underwater for too long, though. They are able to rise and swim back courtesy of Rebreathers, around 10 of which are provided. Players may also use their own scuba suit for this portion of the game.

Dealing With The Kkangpae

The Captain, via a call, congratulates the player after their retrieval of the cargo. Unfortunately, the sound of glass breaking can be heard, as well as the implication that part of the cargo has been stolen. Players have to go back to the ship, only to see it hijacked by the Kkangpae. They will also notice some enemies riding Dinghies circling their yacht. The confrontation with the Kkangpae is tricky, as players find themselves surrounded. There is no time limit for rescuing the Captain though, so players can take their time.

After eliminating the Kkangpae, players will receive a call from an unknown number with the Captain on the line. He will explain that the Kkangpae took him and the bartender hostage as revenge for the yacht destruction in the previous mission. Players will be directed to a peninsula near Cape Catfish, with one area designated as a hostage site. Be careful during this portion of the mission, as the player's travel towards the peninsula will have them encounter various Kkangpae. Not only that, they need to steer clear of the hostage site, as the Captain and bartender will be executed once players are seen at a particular distance. Eliminating the hostiles stealthily will complete the mission.

The adventures of the players and the Galaxy Super Yacht take a wilder turn fitting the Grand Theft Auto name courtesy of the third mission. When players accept their mission, the Captain tells the player of a business deal they have to salvage involving the Pacific Country Club. Apparently, an unknown party has started setting club members' cars on fire, and it’s up to players to stop this. Despite its straightforward nature, the mission has a particular complexity that players need to consider.

Stealing The Tula

First, go to the LSIA to steal a Tula (an aerial firefighting plane) from the coast guard before the fire department is able to respond to the situation. When players arrive at the airport, around 10 Coast Guard members are patrolling the area. Players will notice stealth visibility cones in their minimaps, all from the Coast Guard members. Players need to steal the Tula quietly, as getting spotted will give players 2 Stars in Wanted levels.

Once players do steal the Tula, they will notice a new part of the HUD: a “Water Remaining” gauge. Players need to land on water periodically to refill it, and should do so until they have around eight water gauges. This serves as “water bombs” to wipe out the fire in the garage. After filling up the bars, players will get a text message warning them to stay out of this problem.

RELATED: Grand Theft Auto 6: Side Activities The Open World Should Include

Putting Out Fires

Players will notice eight burning cars when they arrive at the country club, all of which they have to extinguish. This becomes challenging as Kkangpae try to destroy the Tula from the ground. The added challenge here is that players only have five minutes to save all these vehicles.

When players finish this segment, the Captain will tell players that they need to go to the Pipeline Inn nearby to save yet another set of vehicles. This time around, players need to save six more vehicles within another five minutes while enemies try to destroy the Tula. After putting out all the fires, the Captain will tell players to bring the Tula back to the yacht for disposal. The mission ends when the player lands the Tula near the yacht.

Despite the difficulty of the mission, failing and restarting does get players next to the Tula without any enemies present. This allows them to simply load the Tula with water and proceed with the rest of the mission.

In the fourth mission, the Captain has begun formulating a plan for exacting vengeance against the Kkangpae for the previous mission’s kidnapping. This becomes a more action-packed take on the questline, akin to more standard missions in the title.

First, players have to go to the Fridgit Cold Storage warehouse inside the Cypress Flats. The mission will tell them to destroy all AC units that maintain the temperature of the gang’s products. During this part of the mission, the Kkangpae will attack players from Frogger choppers from the skies and from other rooftops. Players new to GTA Online need to be careful here, as they might be overwhelmed.

Next, players are asked to steal Benson, a product that the gang is currently preparing to deliver. The Captain will then tell players to deliver the product to the buyer themselves. During the process of delivery, the Kkangpae will still try to chase and attack the players from various directions and from different vehicles. The buyer is located in Del Perro’s Hedera Hotel, in an alley behind the structure. The mission is completed after players exit the vehicle.

Bon Voyage takes place during a heavy thunderstorm. At the start of this mission, the Captain tells players that the heavy rain has shut down both yacht’s engines and generators. Even the power onboard will go down, and the helicopter aboard the expensive GTA Online yacht explodes while waves of enemies slowly arrive.

The yacht usually has anti-aircraft systems, but the lack of electricity means they’re non-functional. Only the players are able to defend the yacht. This is perhaps the most difficult confrontation in the questline. Enemies will be coming from multiple fronts: enemies already onboard, those arriving from the sea, and those rappelling down from choppers.

There will be three waves of enemies of progressing difficulty. Unfortunately, players won’t be able to enter the interior of the yacht. However, players will continuously see Body Armor and Health pack pickups on the top deck just outside the bridge’s entry to give them the occasional boost.

After the second wave, the Captain will realize that the attackers are once again the Kkangpae. When players reach the third wave, the Captain will finally get power back on the yacht and activate the defenses. This gives players an offensive boost, as the Captain will be able to handle threats from the skies. After players clear the remaining threats from the boats and on the ground, they will finally complete the mission.

Grand Theft Auto Online was released for the PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS3, PC, and Xbox 360.

Galaxy Super Yacht

The Galaxy Super Yacht is a yacht introduced to Grand Theft Auto Online in the GTA Online: Executives and Other Criminals update for the PlayStation 4 , Xbox One , and PC .

In A Superyacht Life - Bon Voyage , it is stated that "Galaxy" would provide some compensation for unexpected engine failure. It is not certain whether "Galaxy" is the company name of the ship manufacturer, or just simply a short-form for "Galaxy Super Yacht" as a full company name.

Description [ ]

The yacht is a full-sized yacht/cruiser fitted with a range of luxury features, including one or two helipads. The vessels feature a large bridge and 3 individual decks, while medium and high-end yachts also include a jacuzzi and a luxury helicopter.

There are a few options which can be chosen by calling the ship's captain using the in game phone, and can be used to gain access to the yacht when it is anchored at a location. The options include:

• Calling for the helicopter (if applicable) which spawns on the yacht to be delivered to a location near the anchor point. Costs $1,000.
• Calling for a boat to be delivered to the shoreline near the anchor point. This will always be the Dinghy . Costs $750.
• Requesting your personal vehicle to be delivered to the shoreline so that you can travel from the yacht to the shore and have a car waiting for you. Free of charge.

Yachts can be purchased from $ 6,000,000 to $8,000,000 in GTA Online .

The Yacht cannot be controlled and does not move by itself, but the player can request the captain to move it to another location for $25,000. This fee can be reduced to $10,000 by completing the A Superyacht Life missions.

The ship comes with 2 NPC crew members — the captain and a bartender. The player can select who can access the yacht and its vehicles. Like apartments, the yacht can be set as a spawn point. Essentially, the yacht acts as a floating apartment, although it does not count toward the total properties owned by the player.

When entering the location of the yacht or nearing it, the following format of text will appear in the bottom right corner of the screen: [model of yacht] [custom name of yacht] [player's ID]

• For example:

Aquarius Yacht Titanic Player999

Air defenses [ ]

The owner can activate the vessel's weapons defense system through the interaction menu and specify who can pass through, but while the system is active, players cannot access their personal weapons or fire their weapons from armed vehicles in a 150-meter radius of the yacht. The defense system can attack player and NPC aircraft and those with parachutes by emitting nearby explosions within the 250 meter radius, and also giving a warning to intruders to leave the air zone when approaching in the radius of 400 meters. It can even destroy armored aircraft (including the Avenger ) in one direct hit. The air defenses can also defend against incoming rockets from aircraft and launchers.

Purchase [ ]

Daily Fees [ ]

Owning a Galaxy Super Yacht incurs a fee of $500 per day. Before The Contract update, the fee was $1,000 per day.

The names of the three models are references to constellations and mythology.

The Orion [ ]

The Orion Yacht . ( Rear quarter view )

The Orion is the cheapest yacht purchasable, for $ 6,000,000. Comes with:

• 210ft yacht with timeless exterior styling.
• Three beautifully appointed guest rooms with en-suites.
• Expansive sun deck for entertaining.
• Shitzu Tropic
• Speedophile Seashark

The Pisces [ ]

The Pisces Yacht . ( Rear quarter view )

The Pisces is the middle-class yacht purchasable, for $7,000,000. Comes with:

• Two Helipads
• Buckingham Swift Deluxe
• Pegassi Speeder
• Nagasaki Dinghy
• A pair of Speedophile Seasharks

The Aquarius [ ]

The Aquarius Yacht . ( Rear quarter view )

The Aquarius is the most expensive yacht purchasable, for $8,000,000. Shares the main features of The Pisces but exchanges the small portholes below the accessible decks for larger rectangular windows. Comes with:

• Buckingham SuperVolito Carbon
• Lampadati Toro
• Four Speedophile Seasharks

Modifications [ ]

Similar to the customized apartments , several modifications can be applied to allow the player to create their own yacht. The following apply to all models of the Yacht.

Fittings [ ]

• Chrome Fittings ( Included; $100,000 to downgrade )
• Gold Fittings (+$750,000)

Lighting [ ]

• Presidential Green (Included; $300,000 to downgrade)

• Vivacious Blue (+$525,000)
• Vivacious Rose (+$550,000)

Essentially, the main difference between the two types of lighting options is that the Vivacious puts light bars on the exterior of the yacht as well as lighting the interior, whereas the Presidential option only lights the interior.

Each of the color options features an additional accent color, this is most visible when looking at the demonstration photos of the lighting when selecting the options when you purchase the yacht. If the player selects the Vivacious Gold lighting for example, the top decks are lit up purple, and there are other places along the yacht which this accent color will feature. Accent colors feature on both Presidential and Vivacious options, however the latter is more vibrant. The following accent colors correspond to the lighting choices:

• Green base color - pale orange accent
• Blue base color - pale green accent
• Rose base color - light blue accent

• Intrepid - Black with red hull stripes (+$635,000)
• Voyager - Green with yellow stripes (+$650,000)

Based on the colour scheme chosen, the spawned vehicles on the yacht will take on that color scheme as well.

• United States of America
• Netherlands
• South Korea
• Switzerland
• New Zealand
• Puerto Rico
• Czech Republic
• Liechtenstein

GTA Online - Yacht Gameplay and Tour Executives and Other Criminals DLC

• It costs $500,000 to downgrade to the Orion and $1,000,000 to downgrade to the Pisces.
• Darcy states in A Superyacht Life - Overboard that paper documentation kept onboard identifies the ship and crew as permanent residents of international waters. Without it, taxes would have to be paid to the IRS.
• Multiple yachts can be in the same area, except they are spread out. There are 12 spots around the map which a yacht can be moved to, and there is a limit of 3 yachts at one time in the same location. This means that there are enough spaces in a single 30 player free roam lobby for every player to have their yacht on the map at the same time.
• In addition, it will also cost $250,000 to rename their yacht, and $25,000 to fit a different flag onto their yacht.
• Despite the vessel's size, there doesn't appear to be any staff present other than the Bartender and the Captain, Brendan Darcy . However, there are apparently further occupants according to the Bartender, as she will sometimes comment to the player "The crew are so well trained, you wouldn't even know they were here". In A Superyacht Life - Overboard, Darcy mentions that he will send out crew members to retrieve the jetskis stolen from the ship.
• All models feature inaccessible areas, as evidenced by windows not connected to rooms in the cabin. This could be where the crew mentioned above reside. Additionally, there seems to be a large engine room as seen on the Dignity , as these Yacht models share the same removable access hatch by the stern.
• Vehicles that come with the yacht purchase will respawn on/with the yacht a few minutes after being destroyed.
• In addition, should one deign to sit in one of the designated seats in the Jacuzzi, their health would quickly regenerate to full.
• The yacht hot tubs also have a location where the player can stand and lean against the side of the tub, which is unique to the yacht hot tubs.
• The ash trays that appear around the Jacuzzi have " Buckingham Luxor " branding on them, likely because they were reused from the ash trays present in the Luxor Deluxe .
• The roof and electronic masts vary between yacht models. The Orion has a mostly flat roof and a tall, vertical mast; the Pisces has short exhaust risers, more anti-aircraft launch tubes, and a sloped mast; and the Aquarius has tall exhaust risers, even more anti-aircraft launch tubes and a short mast attached to an arch.
• Despite the number of anti-aircraft launch tubes between yacht models, they all have equal range, firepower, and reloading times.

Example of the generic "true" name that can appear on a yacht when the owner leaves the session.

• When there's someone on a yacht and the owner leaves the session, the yacht will have the name "true" or "false" shown on the back. No-one will be able to use the vehicles that belong to the yacht. When no one is looking at the yacht, it will despawn. In some cases, the defense system will come online, with Brendan warning the player to leave the yacht's vicinity.
• When a player moves their yacht, any other players on it will also be moved on the yacht to its new location.
• If the player moves their yacht, vehicles left on it that do not belong get left behind. If another player is in the area, the vehicle will simply fall into the sea.
• The chair on the right side of the Yacht's bar has unique animations where the player sitting on it will do actions such as head banging, tapping their feet, resting their arm on the chair's head and clapping their hands.
• There is an error with the Hot Tub where the player's clothes will not get visibly wet when entering it, however, water can still be seen falling off of them after they have left it.
• Despite not being near land, strippers from the Vanilla Unicorn can still be called to the Yacht. The phone options menu will state "Invite to Your Apartment" however, but if the player is present inside their Yacht, they will buzz the Cabin door there instead.
• If a vehicle is driven into the hot tub, it wouldn't get damaged from the water, even if it's fully submerged.
• The yacht's anti-air defenses are not able to defend against Merryweather Security 's airstrike service.
• The yacht, especially the Aquarius, appears to be the same yacht from Max Payne 3's "Sun Tan Oil, Stale Margaritas, and Greed" chapter, which is another Rockstar game. Likely a homage, considering that Max Payne 3 came out in 2012, one year before Grand Theft Auto V .

Glitches [ ]

• There is a minor visual glitch that occurs during rainy weather, wherein the ceilings and canopies of the yacht will not block the rain while the player is on the deck, and the rain falls through these surfaces.
• Sometimes, yacht owners may see someone else's yacht marked as their own; it will be marked on their radar and their name will appear above it, as if the player owned a second yacht. This, however, does not affect any functionalities on either the player's own yacht or the other player's, such as accessibility or the air defenses.

GTA Online Yacht Missions And Payouts

GTA Online offers a wide variety of mission chains and quests, providing players with the opportunity to earn substantial rewards. Among these missions are the Yacht missions, which are part of the "A Superyacht Life series" and become available after purchasing a Yacht. 

To assist you in completing these missions and obtaining the associated rewards, we have provided a comprehensive breakdown below. We will outline the specifics of each Yacht mission, explain the payout structure, and reveal the rewards you can expect upon completion.

GTA Online - All Yacht Missions

As part of the Los Santos Summer Special update in Grand Theft Auto Online, players can engage in a series of six missions called " A Superyacht Life. " These missions are assigned by Brendan Darcy, the captain of the player's Galaxy Super Yacht, and can be played by a group of 1 to 4 players.

Below are the descriptions of all six of these Yacht missions in GTA Online:

Mission 1: Overboard

Captain Darcy alerts the player that the yacht's jetskis and important documents, which establish both the Captain and the player as permanent residents of international waters, have been stolen. The player is instructed to proceed to the Vespucci Canals, where the joyriders were last spotted. Eliminating the thieves in this area can be challenging, but it offers decent cover and strategic shooting positions.

The Captain reveals that the culprits are members of the Puerto Del Sol yacht club, prompting the player to seek revenge. The next objective is to head to the yacht club and sink the 10 boats docked there. Time is of the essence, as a boat may attempt to escape. Sink them all, and the mission will be completed.

Mission 2: Salvage

Brendan Darcy informs the player about a distress call from a sunken supply ship nearby. They are directed to a dredge barge to collect the sunken cargo around the wrecked Olifantus ship. 

After retrieving the cargo, the player returns to find the yacht invaded by the Kkangpae. They eliminate the hijackers and receive a call from Brendan, who reveals he and the bartender have been taken hostage. The player rescues them while fending off attackers and returns to the yacht.

Mission 3: All Hands

Brendan alerts the player about a problematic business deal at the Pacific Country Club. They must steal firefighting planes from LSIA to extinguish cars set on fire by club members. Guards at the airport trigger a 2-star wanted level until the Tula is acquired.

After refueling in the air and receiving a threatening text message, the player heads to the country club. They extinguish burning vehicles while fending off Kkangpae attacks. There's a 5-minute time limit for each task. Brendan mentions additional fires at the Pipeline Inn. Returning the Tula to the yacht concludes the mission. Failing restarts at the LSIA hangar without enemies.

Mission 4: Icebreaker

Brendan Darcy devises a revenge plan against the Kkangpae for kidnapping him. The player destroys air-conditioning units at the Fridgit Cold Storage warehouse and steals the prepared product. 

The player must deliver the goods while fending off Kkangpae attacks. The mission ends when the player reaches the buyer in an alley behind the Hedera Hotel in Del Perro.

Mission 5: Bon Voyage

The mission starts with a stormy setting as the yacht's systems fail. Enemies attack from different directions, including onboard, in Dinghies, and from Buzzards. Brendan reveals that the attackers are the Kkangpae, the gang that previously kidnapped him. 

The player defends the yacht through three waves of enemies. Brendan restores power and requests the player to eliminate remaining foes on foot and in boats. The mission ends after completing this task.

Mission 5: D-Day

Brendan informs the player about the boss of a money laundering outfit staying on a heavily defended yacht. He suggests using a Kraken submersible to sneak past their defenses. The sub is located near a barge, close to the rival yacht's defensive zone patrolled by Dinghies.

While operating the sub, the player must stay low to avoid detection and navigate through underwater mines. A detection meter shows the player's visibility to the yacht's defenses, while a depth meter indicates their underwater level. Staying at a safe depth of around 275-350ft is crucial. The surrounding area is patrolled by boats, so the player must remain submerged.

Approaching the yacht's vicinity, the player resurfaces and boards the ship, engaging multiple enemies onboard. After eliminating all enemies, the boss tries to escape in a helicopter. The player must give chase, with the helicopter being escorted by two others. Dinghies also join the pursuit. The escort helicopters have gunners armed with RPGs. The target helicopter's health is displayed on-screen. Once the helicopter is destroyed and the boss is killed, Brendan suggests collecting the bounty on the boss's head, concluding the mission.

GTA Online - Yacht Missions Payouts

Currently, we don't have an exact number for the payout of each of these missions, since they depend on other factors such as the rank you play at and the amount of time the mission takes. However, we can say that the payout will be around the $38,000 mark (adjusting for the 25% increase thanks to the recent update), as after they are all complete, players will earn the Captain's Outfit as a souvenir.

So there you have it, a complete breakdown of all the Yacht missions on GTA Online as well as the Payouts you'll receive for completing them. Be sure to check back here soon, as we'll update this listing with the most relevant information as it's made available.

Originally posted by TThree : It has its own set of missions along with a CEO job to defend the top deck in session. It's a spawnable location. Has some weapons that spawn inside. Offers a helicopter, some jetski, & a boat or 2 (depending on which you buy). Has yacht defenses you can activate. Has a bar. It's basically a glorified apartment on the water, but there's no heist room so it's more like a medium apartment.

Whether you’re a seasoned player or a GTA beginner, we will provide you with all the necessary steps and tips to ensure a smooth yacht-moving experience.

From learning about the controls to understanding the specific locations where you can dock your yacht, we’ve got you covered. Stay tuned as we unravel the secrets of yacht navigation in GTA 5!

Get unlimited money & RP in GTA 5

Prerequisites

In order to move a yacht in GTA 5, you need to have a yacht first. Yachts can be purchased in the game by visiting the in-game website DockTease on your phone’s web browser. Once you have purchased a yacht, you can proceed with the following steps to move it.

Step 1: Locate Your Yacht

The first step towards moving your yacht in GTA 5 is to locate its current position. Yachts are usually found at their default location unless you have moved it previously. The default locations are North Calafia Way and Chumash.

If you are unsure about the location of your yacht, you can open the interaction menu by pressing the “M” key (on PC) or holding the “Touchpad” (on PlayStation) or “View” button (on Xbox). From the interaction menu, select the “Services” option and then click on “Yacht Services”. This will open up a submenu displaying your yacht’s current location.

Step 2: Call Captain on Phone

To move your yacht, you need to give a call to the captain. Open your phone by pressing the “Up” arrow key (on PC) or holding the “Up” button (on consoles) and navigate to the contacts list. Look for the contact named “Captain” and give him a call by selecting his name.

Once you are connected with the captain, he will ask you about your desired yacht location. You can choose from several pre-defined locations, including Vespucci Beach, Puerto Del Sol, and Pacific Bluffs. Simply let the captain know where you want your yacht to move by selecting the location from the given options.

Step 3: Confirm the Move

After you have chosen your desired location, the captain will inform you about the cost associated with moving the yacht. If you have sufficient funds in your GTA 5 character’s bank account, you can proceed with the confirmation.

Typically, the cost for moving the yacht ranges from $25,000 to $35,000 depending on the distance between the current and desired locations. Confirm the move if you are willing to pay the required amount by selecting the “Yes” option when prompted.

Step 4: Wait for Yacht to Move

Once you have confirmed the move, you will need to wait for a while as the yacht is being transported to the new location. The duration of the transportation process may vary depending on the distance. The game will display a notification informing you about the progress of the yacht’s movement.

While waiting, you can continue playing the game or explore other activities. You will receive another notification once the yacht has arrived at its new location.

The option to move your yacht is available only after you have completed the tutorial missions provided by DockTease.

Additionally, it’s important to note that moving the yacht will not affect any interior or customization choices you have made. Your yacht and all the upgrades will remain intact at the new location.

That’s all you need to do in order to move your yacht in GTA 5. Follow these steps, and you’ll be able to relocate your yacht to your preferred spot in the game. Enjoy cruising the virtual waters in style!

Can You Drive The Super Galaxy Yacht In GTA Online?

Hey there, GTA Online enthusiasts! Today, we're diving into a topic that's been buzzing around the community for a while now: the Galaxy Super Yacht. This isn't just any boat in the vast ocean of GTA Online. It's a symbol of luxury, a floating piece of art that has players scratching their heads with one big question – can you actually drive this beauty?

Think of the Galaxy Super Yacht as the crown jewel of Los Santos ' waters. It's big, it's flashy, and it's got everyone talking. But here's the catch: despite its grandeur and the freedom that GTA Online offers, there's a bit of mystery shrouding this vessel. Why is this such a hot topic, you ask? Well, it's not every day you get to steer a multimillion-dollar yacht in a world where you can pretty much do anything.

The Debate: Can You Drive the Galaxy Super Yacht?

Alright, let's cut to the chase and tackle the big question head-on: Is it possible to take the wheel of the Galaxy Super Yacht in GTA Online? This has been a burning question for players ever since this floating palace made its grand entrance in the game. It's not just about the luxury or the status symbol; it's about what you can actually do with this yacht.

First things first, the Galaxy Super Yacht is undeniably a showstopper. It's like the Rolls Royce of the sea, decked out with all the bells and whistles you can imagine. But when it comes to GTA Online, it's not just about looking good; it's about action, adventure, and yes, driving cool vehicles. That's where the debate heats up.

On the flip side, there are reasons to think that maybe, just maybe, the Galaxy Super Yacht wasn’t meant to be driven. Maybe it's designed to be more of a status symbol, a trophy for those who have made it big in the criminal underworld of GTA. A place to chill, plan your next big move, or just enjoy the view. But is that all there is to it?

Rockstar's Stance and Game Mechanics

Now, let's shift gears and look at what Rockstar Games, the creators of GTA Online, have to say about the Galaxy Super Yacht. Understanding their perspective is crucial because, at the end of the day, they're the puppet masters behind the scenes, and their vision shapes our gaming experience.

Rockstar Games has a reputation for packing GTA Online with surprises and endless possibilities. They've given us a world where almost anything goes – from skydiving off skyscrapers to pulling off elaborate heists. But when it comes to the Galaxy Super Yacht, their approach seems a bit different.

To wrap up our deep dive into the enigma of the Galaxy Super Yacht in GTA Online, we've sailed through some interesting waters. The big question – "Can you drive the Galaxy Super Yacht?" – remains somewhat of a mystery, akin to an urban legend within the virtual streets of Los Santos.

From our exploration, it's clear that while the Galaxy Super Yacht epitomizes luxury and exclusivity, its role in GTA Online is more static than dynamic. Despite the game's reputation for pushing boundaries and offering a plethora of interactive experiences, this particular vessel remains an exception, a jewel in the crown that's admired but not maneuvered.

This decision by Rockstar Games, whether for technical, thematic, or future planning reasons, adds a unique flavor to the game. It keeps players talking, guessing, and hoping. Maybe one day we'll see this grand yacht set sail under our command, but for now, it stands as a symbol of aspiration and achievement in the game's rich tapestry.

So, while you might not be able to captain the Galaxy Super Yacht across the virtual seas, it serves as a reminder of the diverse and ever-evolving world that Rockstar has crafted. It's a world where surprises lurk around every corner, and sometimes, the allure lies in the unknown and the unattainable.
