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.

- Pegassi Speeder
- Nagasaki Dinghy
- A pair of Speedophile Seasharks
The Aquarius [ ]
The Aquarius Yacht . ( Rear quarter view )

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)
- Presidential Blue (+$315,000)
- Presidential Rose (+$330,000)
- Presidential Gold (+$350,000)
- Vivacious Green (+$500,000)
- Vivacious Blue (+$525,000)
- Vivacious Rose (+$550,000)
- Vivacious Gold (+$600,000)
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
- Gold base color - dark blue/purple accent
- Pacific - White with blue hull (Included; $100,000 to downgrade)
- Nautical - White with blue hull & stripe (+$135,000)
- Mariner - White with green hull & stripe (+$170,000)

- Ruby - White with red hull & sides (+$340,000)
- Mediterranean - White with red hull stripes (+$365,000)
- Vintage - Cream/Beige with blue stripe (+$425,000)
- Continental - Cream/Beige with gray stripes (+$450,000)
- Battleship - Dark gray with cream stripes (+$475,000)
- Command - Dark gray with light-gray upper decks (+$495,000)
- Classico - White with dark gray upper decks (+$620,000)
- Intrepid - Black with red hull stripes (+$635,000)
- Voyager - Dark 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.

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.

I was on a yacht yesterday and someone had a swift on theirs. And I know you can just land them but it was colored to match their yacht (white and red) so I don't know if this only served to confuse people but I figured I should mention it. (I have not figured out how to change it) 1. …
It's based on your level of yacht. It'd be nice if they allowed you to pick any of your helicopters to park there permanently like a garage, but that isn't the case.

I traded my Aquarius for a Piscus, just because I like these yacht defence events , also I like the helicopter way more. No quick access to the bow. You can go there on the middile floor.

You cant change the choppers at the moment, however each yacht has a different one
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.
You gotta own a hangar in GTA Online and then you can change colors and add some other mods to your helicopters. It’s not as deep as car customization but still pretty cool …
