==Mission==
== Mission ==
[[Tommy Vercetti]], having [[The Fastest Boat|acquired]] the [[Squalo|fastest boat]], returns to [[Ricardo Diaz|Ricardo Diaz']] [[Vercetti Estate|mansion]] to find an angry Diaz frustrated that his VCR would not eject his favourite [[El Burro (GTA III)|El Burro]] movie. Vercetti, after pointing out the VCR is likely not plugged in, is told that every month a freelance drug dealer moors his yacht and sell his cargo to the first person to arrive, which is going to be Vercetti in the boat he had previously acquired.
[[Tommy Vercetti]], having [[The Fastest Boat|acquired]] the "[[Squalo|fastest boat]]", returns to [[Ricardo Diaz]]' [[Vercetti Estate|mansion]] to find an angry Diaz frustrated that his VCR would not eject his favorite [[El Burro (GTA III)|El Burro]] movie. Vercetti, after pointing out the VCR is likely not plugged in, is told that every month a freelance drug dealer moors his yacht and sell his cargo to the first person to arrive, which is going to be Vercetti in the boat he had previously acquired.


Vercetti leaves Diaz' mansion and goes to the small jetty where he meets [[Lance Vance]] who decides to accompany him. The two drive the boat through a long and changing course before reaching the drug dealer before the other boats, which includes [[Cubans|Cuban]] gangsters. The two, after purchasing the drugs for Diaz, return to Diaz' mansion while avoiding attacking [[Jetmax|boats]], which include Cuban gangsters, and later a [[Sparrow|helicopter]].

*The song heard during the opening cut scene is Dance Hall Days by Wang Chung, which is also featured on the radio station [[Flash FM]].

*Diaz mentions his [[El Burro (GTA III)|El Burro]] tape, presumably bizarre bestiality porn made by the same character in [[Grand Theft Auto III]].

*It is strange that the Cubans in this mission drive [[Speeder]]s instead of their gangboat, the [[Jetmax]], although this is probably to make the mission easier to complete for the player, as the Jetmax has a higher top speed and has more superior acceleration than the Squalo.

*The Squalo used in this mission is bulletproof, fireproof and explosion proof. It is possible to obtain it. First kill Lance to fail the mission. Then beach it near a safehouse with a garage and push it into the garage by sprinting into it or pushing it with a car. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dqlbRTxhbY&feature=related This video] will show how.

*If the player has already completed the mission [[Sir, Yes Sir!]] before completing this mission, the phone call from [[Kent Paul]] telling Tommy he has some information for him will immediately be triggered. This is followed later on by the phone call from Lance, which makes no sense considering the information Kent Paul has is that Lance has been captured by Diaz's men, so logically Lance would not make a casual phone call to Tommy in that situation.

* Even if the player obtains at least a [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era#Two stars|two-star wanted level]] during the mission, no [[VCPD in GTA III Era|police]] [[Predator]]s will chase the player during the latter half of the mission.
** If the player has 3 or more stars, however, a [[Police Maverick]] will still chase the player like normal.
* Usually, when this mission is completed, the player loses any assault rifle they may have had prior to the mission.
