The Nagasaki Blazer Aqua is an amphibious quad bike featured in Grand Theft Auto Online, as part of the Import/Export update.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Blazer Aqua is evidently based on the Gibbs Quadski, sharing the same profile, hull shape and the ability to travel on both land and water.
The vehicle is an amphibious variant of the Blazer, assuming a mostly rounded body with a boat-like hull below. The front has a small guard on the end and a central intake above that runs through the center, while the outer sections have circular headlights. Two mirror wings are also mounted on either side of the same intake.
The middle section mainly consists of the seat and the side steps, while the handlebars feature a single speedometer derived from bikes such as the Akuma and the Bati 801. What look like two racks/frames can also be seen behind the seat, together with a fuel cap on the right.
The rear end is simplistic and features the license plate in the center, two rectangular tail lights on the outer sides and dual circular openings below, where the exhaust tips are seen. The underside is mostly covered and has a single nozzle intended for propulsion and steering of the quad bike while on water, as well as the suspension arms and springs.
The primary color of the vehicle is applied on the main body, while the secondary color is applied on the elevated front compartment, the details on the front and sides, and the rear panel containing the tail lights and license plate. The vehicle uses a set of six-spoke rims with split ends, wrapped in high-profile tires with circular lumps in them. The wheels can also be retracted or deployed.
The vehicle is armed with two machine guns just below the headlights.

Vehicle[]
As expected, the Blazer Aqua has the ability to travel on both land and sea, making it very useful and practical. On land, the Blazer Aqua is reasonably fast and has a very good turning circle, although it is prone to spinning out when driving fast due in part to its short wheelbase. While it does function on water as its name suggestions, its top speed is noticeably slower in water than it is on land, although it is still good enough to keep up with and even outrun boats in the game. Although it is not mandatory to retract the wheels while on the water, it is worth noting that retracting the wheels reduces drag, which is a key feature in races.
An interesting thing to note is that while the Blazer Aqua can reverse almost as fast as it can go forward, in water trying to reverse slows it to a crawl, comparable to trying to reverse on motorbikes.
The vehicle is powered by a small engine, coupled to a 6-speed gearbox and powering all wheels with equal distribution. Its engine sound is similar to that of the Street Blazer.
Weaponry[]
Machine Gun: The driver has access to two front-facing machine guns, which work similarly to those from aircraft such as the Buzzard Attack Chopper and the Annihilator. These guns have a moderate base damage of 20 and a very high fire rate of 1,200 rounds per minute, but they have a rather short range of 100 meters/328 feet (slightly shorter than most firearms, which have a maximum range of 120 meters/393 feet). The weapons work relatively well against targets on foot and unarmored vehicles, but can struggle against armored vehicles such as the Kuruma (Armored) and the Insurgent.
