Father/Son

Overview

Father/Son is an early mission in Grand Theft Auto V in which Michael and Franklin chase thieves who are towing Michael's yacht down the highway with his son Jimmy hiding aboard. Jimmy tried to sell the boat to members of the Marabunta Grande, who simply drove off with it.

Walkthrough

1. Start at the De Santa residence and get into Amanda's car with Franklin.
2. Drive to the Great Ocean Highway and catch up with the truck towing the yacht.
3. Pull alongside so Franklin can jump onto the boat; switch to Franklin and fight off the thieves on deck.
4. Swing the boom to knock attackers off, then help Jimmy jump back into the car when it lines up.
5. Lose the remaining pursuers and take Amanda's damaged car to Los Santos Customs for repairs.

Tips

• Gold medal objectives: rescue Jimmy within 10 seconds of the prompt and deliver Amanda's car with minimal damage.
• Keep the car steady and level with the yacht when Jimmy is ready to jump.
• Drive carefully on the way to the garage to avoid extra damage.

Rewards and unlocks

Franklin receives $2,000. Depending on what has been completed, the mission unlocks Marriage Counseling or The Long Stretch.
