== Description ==
== Trivia==
In games prior to [[GTA IV]], the Dinghy is depicted as the smallest boat in the games, only being able to hold one person; in GTA IV, however, it occupies a maximum of four people. It has two motors, making it the most maneuverable boat in the games. In GTA IV, it resembles a military RHIB (Rigid-Hull Inflatable Boat), and is available with one or two motors. It is also lightweight, so it has the potential to go very fast. Despite its construction, inflatable portions of the Dinghy do not deflate or burst when shot.
* In GTA San Andreas, the default radio station in the Dinghy is [[CSR 103.9]].
* In GTA San Andreas, there's a visual effect glitch that has Carl go into an "invisible chair" sitting position for one second as he changes the radio station. This happens because there is no animation for changing the radio while standing, only while sitting. This also happens with [[Tropic]].
* In GTA IV, The Dinghy serves as an "[[antagonist]]" boat in most missions, where the [[Squalo]] serves as a "[[protagonist]]" boat.
* In GTA IV, the default radio station in the Dinghy is [[Liberty Rock Radio 97.8]].
