==Mission==
According to Diaz, who is shooting birds because they pooped on his car, every smuggler from Vice City to Caracas wants only one thing - a faster boat. Appearently the [[Vice City Boatyard]] has built a super fast boat for some Costa Rican guy - Diaz wants that boat! Successfully steal the boat to earn his approval.
[[Tommy Vercetti]] returns to [[Ricardo Diaz|Ricardo Diaz']] [[Vercetti Estate|mansion]] to look for work, having [[Phnom Penh '86|solved his problems]] with the [[Sharks]], and meets Diaz attempting to kill the pigeons surrounding his mansion. Diaz asks Tommy who owns the fastest boat on the east coast and, after Tommy is unable to answer, Diaz says that he does and he wants to that to remain so. Diaz, however, tells Tommy that every drug dealer between [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] to Caracas, Venezuela wants the fastest boat in the city and that a new one is at the [[Boatyard]] in [[Viceport]] that is being built for a [[Costa Rican Gang|Costa Rican gang]],
==Walkthrough==
Drive to the Vice City Boatyard, there is one guy with a Ruger in the entrance, shoot him. Now, three more guys walking around will attack you, clear your way through them and get to the dock. There, kill all the assholes that come after you. When you've killed those guys, enter the main hangar.


You will have to use a nearby switch to lower the boat into the water, the switch is guarded by three guys wielding hammers. Kill the guys and go for the switch. Now that you've released the boat into the water, about twenty new guards will come after you. Shoot them one by one before they enter the hangar and get close to you or they'll be harder to get rid off. When the coast is clear, run to the boat and hop in.
Tommy leaves Diaz' mansion and drives to the Boatyard, fighting his way onto the premises and shooting the guards guarding the boat. Tommy sees the boat and fights past more guards into a hangar where he presses the switch to lower the boat into the water. Tommy then shoots his way through to the boat and drives it back to Diaz' mansion, gaining a three star wanted level in the process. Tommy however, successfully avoids the [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era|pursuing]] [[VCPD in GTA III Era|police]] [[Predator|boats]].
 
Now that you're in the boat, you will get a three star wanted level, and you will have to drive the boat to [[Vercetti Estate|Diaz's Mansion]], but it's not that hard. Since the cops will only chase you in [[Predator]]s which are easy to avoid, by water, Diaz's Mansion is very close and, above all, you're riding Vice City's fastest boat! When you get the boat to Diaz's Mansion the mission is complete.
==Glitch==
*Due to the way the player enters boats, it is possible to enter the boat without lowering it, saving a lot of time and effort. If the player gets as close to the boat as possible, then tries to enter, they will be teleported into the boat, and can drive back to the mansion.
