==Role in Storyline==
The Boatyard constructed speedboats for specific buyers. The Boatyard built [[Squalo|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 mission [[The Fastest Boat]]. Later in 1986, Tommy Vercetti bought the Boatyard for [[Money|$]]10,000, prompting [[Dwaine]] and [[Jethro]] to leave Vice City to  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 in assets.
