The Best & Fastest Boats in GTA Online & GTA 5 (2024): Ranked by Class

• Helicopters
• Motorcycles
• Sports Classic

On this page you find the full list of the best Boats in GTA Online and GTA 5, ranked by their Overall Performance when raced around a lap .

The performance of all the vehicles in the Boats class has been accurately tested by Broughy1322 , a famous car tester and skilled driver who raced each vehicle around the same circuit and recorded their best lap times. For all the details, read his full explanation of how the Lap Times are tested .

Originally this page ranked the best Boats in GTA 5 by the average of their statistics shown in-game (Speed, Acceleration, Braking, Handling) but unfortunately, the in-game stats bars have proven to be inaccurate, so we changed the ranking to use these more reliable and tested lap times.

So, what are the best Boats in GTA 5 Online in 2024? Which GTA 5 Boats vehicles are the fastest? This ranking is updated to June 2024, featuring all the top performing Boats for PS5, PS4, Xbox and PC, along with their Purchase Price and Top Speed.

Clicking on each vehicle brings you to their detailed information, to see all their specifications, features, and to find out everything there is to know about their performance. We also added a note for the vehicles that cannot be used in standard  Races .

Which Yacht Should You Choose?

In GTA Online, there are three types of yachts to choose from: The Orion, The Pisces, and The Aquarius. The Orion is the cheapest at 6 million, the Pisces costs 7 million, and the Aquarius is the most expensive at 8 million. The Pisces, in our opinion, is the best deal as it comes with better watercraft and a better helicopter than the Orion. However, if you are a fan of jet skis and don’t mind the extra cost, The Aquarius is the way to go. Once you have decided which yacht to buy, you can customize it with aesthetic upgrades such as gold fittings, lighting, and a paint job. You can also choose your own flag and name for the yacht.

How to Buy a Yacht in GTA Online

To buy a yacht in GTA Online, you need to open your phone, head to the internet, then to vehicles and transportation. Click the “Galaxy Super Yacht” banner, pick your yacht, and set your options. Then click “Buy Now,” and you will immediately receive a notification and a new contact. Once you get the notification, head back out to the free roam lobby to get another notification about your chopper (if your yacht comes with one).

What Can You Do With Your Yacht?

Besides having a helicopter, watercraft, and a bedroom, there are other things you can do with your yacht. For example, you can move the yacht around the coastline, though you can’t actually drive the yacht itself sadly. Additionally, you can call in your helicopter by going to contacts, toggling down to the captain, and requesting a helicopter. The yacht also comes with some defenses, but keep in mind that if someone swims to your yacht, the defense system won’t target them. Finally, you can start yacht missions, which can be a great way to earn money.

Yacht Missions

Yacht missions are missions that you can start once you have the yacht. There are six missions in total, and they can take between eight and twenty minutes each to complete. Additionally, the missions can typically pay between twenty and thirty thousand dollars each. However, keep in mind that it can take a while to break even, as you need to complete a minimum of 200 missions to break even with the cheapest yacht.

Owning a yacht in GTA Online can be a great way to show off your wealth and success in the game. However, keep in mind that it can be a long and expensive process to get your money back from the investment. With this guide, we hope you have a better understanding of what you can do with your yacht and how to own and master it in GTA Online. Happy gaming!

hi in this video we’re going through the luxury yacht in gta 5 online hi and welcome back my name’s dan and i’m an old grumpy gamer grand theft auto is a truly massive game between gta 5 and the concert updates from rockstar for gta online there’s no shortage of new content and interesting things to do join me then as we look at the luxury yachts in gta 5 online before we dive in if you’re new to the channel we do how-to guides news and giveaways so consider subscribing and ring the bell to stop today so first things first why on earth would you want a yacht well there’s a few core reasons the luxury heli so depending on your budget your new yacht might come with a helicopter which can be called for a small cost they have a very specific spawn point so they’re not quite as convenient as a sparrow or the oppressor but they’re still very nice some watercraft so that’s a few jet skis and a lovely power boat all of which are stationed off the back of the yacht an additional spawn point so unsurprisingly the yachts have a bedroom so you can spawn in and this can be handy if you have businesses near the southwestern coast or you want quicker access to the los santos airport anti-griefer measures so the yacht comes with a neat defense system that gives you a safe haven it has a couple of caveats but it’s a great way to deal with vehicle-based idiots access to exclusive missions the yacht gives you access to facility specific missions they’re designed for noobs and can be done completely solo and of course it’s a hell of a flex i mean it’s a nice facility to have and one of the most expensive things you can buy in the game so it is a cracking way to show off right we have three different options to choose from with the yachts starting with the orion at 6 million which is a 210 footer and it comes with a single helipad a small two-person canopy runabout and a jet ski the pisces at seven million dollars also a 210 footer but this one comes with two helipads a swift deluxe helicopter the big car speeder which is arguably the best boat in the game a dinghy and two jet skis and a hot tub and finally the aquarius at eight million even now this is the same size and birth as the other yachts 210 feet and has two helipads a hot tub and a dinghy the same as the pisces but comes with the super volito carbon and the toro as well as four jet skis so i’ve gone for the aquarius here but only because it was on super special if i was paying full price the pisces at seven million dollars is a better buy in my opinion the speedboat and their helicopter that come with the pisces are much better and really how often are you using four jet skis at the same damn time next up is the trim chrome is included but you can step it up with gold fittings for an additional seven hundred and fifty 000 lighting and color scheme next now again there is a free option but you can pick from the eight available which will set you back anywhere up to 600 grand sticking with the aesthetics the paint job is next starting with the white paint job and grey trim included and with 12 options ranging in price up to 650 000 and the final option is your flag and yacht name both of which are included in the original price so your minimum out of pocket on this one is six million which gets you the base model yet and nothing else if you have around 8 million to spend though the pisces with a few aesthetic upgrades would be the go right once you’ve decided on your model find somewhere safe open your phone and head to the internet then to vehicles and transport docts and click the galaxy super yacht banner pick your yacht and set your options click buy now and you will immediately receive a notification and a new contact close out of the internet by hitting the x up the top right and you’ll see a new notification with the yacht icon top left as well as a new message from the captain of your new vessel after that you can head back out to the free roam lobby and you’ll get yet another notification this time about your chopper if your yacht comes with one and i’ll cover how to call that in in a bit right so once you’re ready head over to your new yacht and take a look around and after you’ve had a bit of an explore head to the helmets where the captain hangs out and into the yellow marker to start yacht missions there are six missions in total and depending on your skill with a chopper a boat and a firearm they’ll take you between eight and twenty minutes each to complete and typically pay between twenty and thirty thousand dollars each which means an absolute minimum of 200 missions or 27 hours to break even if you go for the absolute cheapest option and get the maximum payout every time honestly though it’ll be more like 300 missions and 75 hours of grinding at maximum difficulty to get your money back so great flex rubbish investment you do get this sweet captain’s outfit though which is nice oh and there’s a few additional things you can do with the yacht which can come in handy too firstly if you’ve gone for the pisces or aquarius you can call in your helicopter and to do this open your phone and go to contacts toggle down to the captain and give him a call once he picks up select request helicopter which will set you back a thousand dollars now this is a little old school so the chopper will spawn in in one of a few dozen places around the map which was great back in the day but it is pretty inconvenient if you’re used to a sparrow or a mark 2 oppressor but anyway once it’s spawned in you’ll see a new chopper icon on the map head on over and you’re good to go while we’re on the captain’s phone you may have also noticed a few other options you can use this same menu to call in your premium boat which will again spawn somewhere up the coast oh and you can also request a personal vehicle or your next job too should you feel so inclined the next thing you can do is move the yacht around the coastline now again this is a little old school so you can’t actually drive the damn thing sadly it’s not the kasaka but you can have the yacht quick travel to different locations in the lobby or be it at a particularly ouchy cost of 25 grand a throw to do this head to the helm on your yacht and stand next to the captain to trigger a button prompt in the top left of the screen click the button noted and bring up the location menu then you can cycle through the locations until you’ve found the one you’re after your defenses and management is next now to access these you can be anywhere on the yacht or anywhere outside in the free roam map head to the interaction menu that’s m on your keyboard the double squares on your xbox or swipe for your playstation scroll down to services and galaxy super yacht from there there’s a few things you can do to skipping the defenses for a moment we can set up who has access to the boats jet skis and the chopper if you have one we can also change who can access the yacht itself and we can set the type of clothing that people wear in the hot tub if yacht has one finally let’s scroll back up to defenses when these are on and don’t forget to set your exclusions but when these are on any player in the free roam lobby in a vehicle will be targeted by the defense systems oh and this also takes care of guided missiles from the casa too but there’s a rub it’s only players in vehicles if someone swims to yacht they won’t be targeted and will be able to board the vessel so it’s great for mark to inject griefers but not so good for people who are just running around being a pain in the backside oh and one more thing with the defenses when they’re on no one can draw a weapon no one it’s great because you can’t have a griefer come in and shoot up the place but it also means you can’t draw and shoot anyone your own self and that’s about it thanks for watching check out the video at the top for another property and business guide or the one down the bottom for some more old grumpy gamer goodness stay safe wash your hands and we’ll see you in the next video you

The Best Boats To Buy In GTA Online

There are a plethora of available boats to buy on the GTA Online marketplace but a select few are a notch above the rest.

By Joey Carr on July 5, 2023 at 12:02PM PDT

There are several classes of vehicles in GTA Online , all of which are quite well-known to any veteran of the franchise. However, there is one certain class of vehicle that tends to get overlooked and undervalued in GTA Online. That class is the boats, which are extremely useful and unique in their own right compared to cars, jets, etc. While boats don't serve as many purposes as those aforementioned vehicles, they can still be a solid class to either collect or stock up on so you're ready for any occasion.

In this guide, we'll be going over what we believe to be the best boats to buy in GTA Online. This list will not include yachts or the Kosatka submarine , however, as we feel those are in a class of their own. Instead, we'll be focusing on actual boats, which range from military-grade to racing to luxury.

Best Boats in GTA Online

While some players might think the fastest boats in GTA Online equals the best, that's not entirely true. Though it does apply to certain boats, there are some that aren't fast at all but might be more worth your money than a boat that can blaze across the Pacific Ocean.

Shitzu Longfin

The Longfin kicks this list off, and for great reasons. Not only does the Longfin have the top boat speed of 122 miles per hour, but it also features outstanding handling, perhaps better than any other boat in GTA Online. Though the handling does come down a bit thanks to the large body of the Longfin, players can still fly around sharp turns with ease while still maintaining their speed. Performance aside, the Longfin has a sleek and slender look that screams luxury. What also screams luxury is its price tag, which is $2,125,000. This is by no means the most expensive boat in the game but it does require players to open their wallets more so than other options.

Lampadati Toro

The Lampadati Toro is yet another luxury boat that comes pre-equipped with a decent speedometer and a terrific aesthetic. The Toro tops out at around 50 miles per hour, which isn't nearly as fast as the top boats in GTA Online. However, the Toro has high acceleration, meaning players will get faster over time, allowing them to catch up to another boat in a race or speed away from police. Its handling is a bit lackluster and will still spend $1,750,000 to acquire it. However, the Toro is a solid investment that's a ton of fun to drive.

Pegassi Speeder

While the Pegassi Speeder doesn't have the top-rated boat speed in GTA Online, coming in at 68 miles per hour, or superior handling and acceleration, it does come with a feature other boats don't. That feature is the ability to be stored on the Galaxy Super Yacht, which comes in handy when you're planning a heist or waiting on your yacht for other reasons. The Speeder also doesn't cost an arm and a leg, only coming in at $325,000. While it's not the best boat in GTA Online, having the ability to be stored on the Galaxy Super Yacht and featuring above-average performance makes it a great purchase.

Nagasaki Weaponized Dinghy

Who doesn't love a dinghy with a machine gun? The Nagasaki Weaponized Dinghy is an extremely popular boat in GTA Online, mostly due to its machine gun and overall performance. It has a top speed of 71.50 miles per hour, making it faster than plenty of standard boats. However, it cannot be used in standard races, so players might have to use the regular Nagasaki Dinghy for those needs. The difference between the two is the standard Dinghy has no weapons but can be raced. The price for the weaponized version is $1,850,000, which is actually not a bad deal for what you're getting in return. Comparatively, the price for the non-weaponized version is only $166,250.

If you want an even better weaponized boat, you can shell out for the Kurts 31 Patrol Boat, which costs nearly $3 million. The Patrol Boat has better overall performance than the Dinghy but does cost over 50% more.

Speedophile Seashark

Rounding out our list is the best Jetski in GTA Online. While not technically a boat, since there are so few high-performance Jetskis in the game, we decided to include the Seashark. It has two variants, the standard one and the Lifeguard one. The only difference between the two is their paint jobs. Both have a top speed of 67 miles per hour, keeping them competitive with top-rated boats on the open water. As one would expect, the Jetskis also have terrific handling.

As a cherry on top, the Seashark can also be stored on the Galaxy Super Yacht and doesn't cost much, coming in at only $17,000. If anything, the Seashark is a worthwhile purchase for the simple pleasure of riding a Jetski on the Pacific Ocean in GTA Online.

The Reefer , the most common boat in the GTA series.

Boats are recurring watercraft first introduced in the original Grand Theft Auto as non-controllable vehicles (without the aid of modifications ), and were made available as controllable vehicles in Grand Theft Auto III . They have been controllable in all games since (with the exception of Grand Theft Auto Advance ). Due to similar attributes, jet-skis such as the Seashark are classified under this article.

• 1.3 Weather
• 2 Submersible

Description [ ]

Boats use a watertight hull that gives them the unique property that allows them to float on water. Boats are not capable of movement across land as they lack wheels, however, they can be found being towed on trailers in Grand Theft Auto V .

In GTA and the 3D Universe , boats were controlled in the same way that cars would. In the HD Universe , boats are controlled identical to the way motorcycles are controlled, moving the left analog stick or the up/down arrow keys will allow the player to adjust the boats twim to improve performance in a similar manner to the way weight is shifted on an in-game motorcycle.

In GTA and all games in the 3D Universe , boats showed no visual damage apart from the obvious smoking and fire. In Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V , boats can be deformed by collisions and explosions. Boat damage is handled in the same manner as the 3D Universe in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars .

Weather [ ]

The weather has a noticeable effect on boats as in can create larger waves which can make controlling a boat more difficult, the player can also be at risk of capsizing (or keeling over).

Submersible [ ]

In GTA V , a submersible was added as a controllable vehicle. Despite having completely different characteristics to a conventional boat, the game still categorizes the submersible as a boat.

• Apart from when blown up in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City , GTA San Andreas and sometimes in GTA IV , boats are unsinkable. In GTA San Andreas , destroyed boats will gradually sink, slower than in GTA Vice City .
• Capsizing a boat in GTA San Andreas instantly kills CJ , even during Boat School lessons (confirmed with Dinghy and Vortex ).
• Larger boats such as the Dignity and the Platypus are used as decorative props and are not controllable without modifications.
• Boats can be found being towed on trailers in GTA V , pushing or pulling these trailers into the water will allow the boat to be stolen.

Vice City Characters We Definitely Don't Want To See In GTA 6

Gta: liberty city stories & vice city stories should get remasters, 10 before & after gta 6 photos proving how far vice city has come.

• GTA: Vice City authentically captures the '80s Miami vibe with neon architecture, era-style cars, and iconic landmarks.
• The game offers over 20 hrs of gameplay with diverse missions, including drug deals, gangs, and building an empire as Tommy Vercetti.
• The music in GTA: Vice City enhances the '80s theme, setting the tone for an immersive experience reminiscent of real-world Miami.

GTA: Vice City is one of the most popular games in the GTA franchise, and a huge part of this was its explorable recreation of Miami. Rockstar recreated Miami Beach pretty perfectly in GTA: Vice City - albeit with the usual exaggerated flare the series is known for - through '80s music, yacht parties, clothing styles, and neon buildings that make the player feel as if they are right in the heart of the Floridian city in the 1980s.

A huge part of the '80s vibes stem from GTA: Vice City being heavily inspired by Miami Vice as well. Every other mission includes the player dealing with drugs or gangs in the city. Taking on the character of Tommy Vercetti, the player must retrieve the money from a drug deal that went bad. As Tommy begins building his empire and exploring Vice City , it is clear that Rockstar created the game to mimic Miami in every way.

GTA Trilogy Cast: Every Famous Voice In Vice City

WIth Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition on the way, here's a helpful refresher on the star-studded cast of GTA: Vice City.

Many Iconic Hotels Make An Appearance In GTA: Vice City

Including the colony hotel, which gets an amusing new name.

The architecture in Vice City is almost identical to the buildings in Miami. The Colony Hotel in Miami, for instance, is remade in GTA: Vice City as the Colon Hotel . The Hotel's appearance is very similar to real-life Miami, identically matching with the blue neon sign. Although players can't enter the Hotel, it is nice to see familiar landmarks in the game. Another landmark in GTA: Vice City is the Cape Florida Lighthouse in Key Biscayne. Players can enter the lighthouse and can even find a rare item around the area.

The famous Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami makes an appearance in GTA: Vice City . Renamed as the Ducum Inn Hotel, the landmark can be found in the Vice Point area in the game. The Hotel's half-circle shape is identical to the real Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach. Players can't enter the Ducum Inn unless they are playing GTA: Vice City Stories, which is different from GTA: Vice City , with its own story and a different playable character. The Fontainebleau Hotel is one of the most historic buildings in Miami and was made famous through many movies and TV shows.

Some old faces from GTA: Vice City could be reappearing in GTA 6 - but a select few characters would actually ruin the title just by being there.

GTA: Vice City's Map Is A Close Replica Of Miami

With its vehicles, attire, and communities encapsulating a specific era.

The map in GTA: Vice City comes to a point like the state of Florida and even has islands that resemble those in real-world Miami. Where North Bay Village and Normandy Shores golf course is in Miami, Vice City has a similar layout in the same location. The place called Little Haiti is in the game as it is also in the same place as it is in Miami. When in comparison, Miami and GTA: Vice City's maps are almost identical.

Another part of Vice City that fits Miami's real world is the characters' clothes . The majority of the clothes worn in Vice City include Hawaii-type button-down shirts or mafia-style outfits. The 1980s were a time for pastel suits, and they definitely flourish throughout the game. The majority of the women in the game wear swimsuits or dresses, and protagonist Tommy Vercetti can change clothes with many different outfits available in the game that fit the Miami lifestyle that was shown on-screen in the '80s.

GTA: Vice City also features more than 120 era-style cars to further recreate the '80s aesthetic.

Throughout GTA: Vice City 's 20-hour campaign, players can interact with various nationalities common in Miami, completing various storylines for the Haitian and Cuban groups. The Cuban missions include Umberto Robina, voiced by Danny Trejo in GTA: Vice City , and while many of GTA: Vice City 's characters can slip into caricatures to match the GTA series' tone, it's the wider representation of these cultures that helps to make Vice City seem so much like real-world Miami.

GTA: The Trilogy remastered GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas, and Rockstar should follow it with remasters of Liberty City and Vice City stories.

GTA: Vice City's Music Sets The Real-World Miami Tone

Gta radio had a variety of era-appropriate songs.

In GTA: Vice City, the music gives the game the '80s theme it is looking for. Being on a yacht while a Hall & Oates song plays in the background is an iconic moment. The era of music throughout the game is an excellent selection for the setting. Although some songs are missing from the GTA: Vice City radio in the Definitive Edition due to various licensing deals expiring, Rockstar picked suitable soundtracks to capture the Miami feel in the '80s as players explore the city.

The Miami-lookalike, Vice City, is poised to receive one of the biggest and most beautiful upgrades in gaming history in Grand Theft Auto 6.

Rockstar Will Be Revisiting Vice City In GTA 6

Offering a more up-to-date recreation of miami and the wider state of florida.

GTA: Vice City captures the '80s lifestyle in Miami in exaggerated but often accurate ways through its clothing, neon architecture, and music hits, and overall, it does a great job making players feel like they are in the real-world Miami in the heart of the 1980s. Rockstar is looking to revisit the iconic Vice City location - and the wider state of Leonida - in Grand Theft Auto 6 in Fall 2025, and from what was shown in the anticipated sequel's trailer, this should better represent a modern version of Miami, much like how GTA 5 brought San Andreas out of the 90s and into the present day.

Take-Two CEO Talks About Not Announcing GTA 6 On PC

When Grand Theft Auto (GTA) 6 was revealed in December, players immediately noticed that the game was only announced for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The lack of a PC release at launch frustrated many who will have waited 12 years since the game’s initial launch on PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2013 by the time GTA 6 releases. Rockstar owner Take-Two Interactive is now addressing the decision not to announce GTA 6 for PC.

During a talk at the TD Cowen conference on May 30, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick was asked about the lack of a PC announcement for the game (around the six-minute mark), and whether that was a firm decision.

“Well, the lack of an announcement is not something that could be set in stone as near as I could tell, because the only thing that happens after the lack of an announcement is an announcement, I suppose, or a continuing lack of an announcement, I guess that could happen too. It doesn’t seem to me that either would be set in stone,” he told those on the conference call.”

He continued: “But Rockstar has an approach to platforms which we’ve seen before, and they will make more announcements in due time. I do believe that the right strategy for our business is to be where the consumer is, and historically what this company has done is address consumers anywhere they are, on any platform that makes sense, over time.”

There wasn’t a follow-up on the topic as the conference call moved forward with other business questions for Zelnick. That said, his comments surely opened the door to hope that GTA 6 will be released on PC. However, how close to the initial release remains to be seen. GTA 5 didn’t come to PC until nearly two years after its initial release. The studio’s most recent release, Red Dead Redemption 2, wasn’t released on PC until a year after its console release.

GTA 6 is set to release in Fall 2025 .
