The Boat is a inflatable dinghy in Grand Theft Auto.
Design[]
The Boat is a small red boat with a single engine on the back. There are black frames on the middle and the driver sits on the left side of the boat.
Availability[]
The Boat, unfortunately, is not meant to be driven by the player as trying to jump on it will cause the player to plunge into the water and drown. If obtained by hacking/mods, the Boat will behave like a car on land, with slow acceleration, a low top speed and average handling. It is possible to swim with it, although falling down into the river will cause severe damage to the Boat, and sometimes even an instant explosion. However, if the player presses the reverse button while the Boat is going to fall into the water, it will not cause an explosion and it can be driven on the water.
