The Boatyard is, as the name states, a boatyard in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is located in Viceport, Vice City, a short walk away from the Viceport Military Garage, Phil's Depot, and the Vice City Port Authority office.

Role in storyline

The Boatyard constructed speedboats for specific buyers. The Boatyard built the "fastest boat" in Vice City for the head of the Costa Rican Gang, but Tommy Vercetti broke into the Boatyard to steal the boat under orders of Ricardo Diaz during the mission The Fastest Boat. Before being purchased by Tommy Vercetti, the Boatyard was owned and run by Dwaine and Jethro. Later in 1986, Tommy Vercetti bought the Boatyard for $10,000, prompting them to leave Vice City for the state of San Andreas.

Tommy uses the Boatyard as a port of entry for the cocaine shipments, which he then proceeds to distribute in Vice City. When Tommy finishes the boat race in Checkpoint Charlie, the business will generate up to $2,000 every day as an asset.

Script

Tommy Vercetti: Yeah. Which one of the boats is the fastest?

Dwaine: It's already in the water, dude. I thought you might want to try her out. Dude, she's already running with a 300 horse power engine...
