== | ===Performance=== | ||
While the Marquis posses a streamlined hull and is common in various locations of the games, the boat is significantly slow with poor speed and acceleration (due to its underwhelming motor) and has stiff controls, making it one of the worst watercraft to commandeer in all its appearances. | |||
