Funny you didn't notice existing mention of its performance. Nice unsubstantial assumption based on a joke quote too.

 The '''Marquis''' is a sailboat that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto IV]].
-== Description ==
+== Design ==
-The Marquis is a long single-hull sailboat with a [[wp:Bermuda rig|Bermuda rig]] and propulsion of the motor in the rear, features that have not changed much since its introduction. While one of the largest boats in the games and common in various locations of the games, the boat is significantly slow (due to its underwhelming motor) and has stiff controls. Despite its design, the ship's sails are of no practical use as they are down and completely rolled up.

 While the Marquis in pre-GTA IV games have long been depicted as a leisure sailboat, the GTA IV rendition of the Marquis sports a more luxurious design with a windowed cabin. In comparison to the former's blocky design, GTA IV rendition is also sleeker and modernized.
 ==Performance==
-The Marquis, as expected from a boat of its size, possess poor speed, acceleration, turning and handling, making it the worst boat to drive in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], despite its streamlined hull. It is the slowest boat in Vice City. According to the [[Vice City Bureau of Investigation]], nobody actually drives the Marquis these days.
