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


The '''Boatyard''' is a business located at [[Viceport]], [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. Circa [[1986]], the Boatyard is owned by two men, [[Dwaine]] and [[Jethro]]. 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 mission [[The Fastest Boat]]. Later in 1986, Tommy Vercetti bought the Boatyard for [[Money|$]]10,000, prompting [[Dwaine]] and [[Jethro]] to leave Vice City. 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.

*There is a reference to the boatyard in a [[Wear Flowers in Your Hair|mission]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]].
