Overview

Minisub is a setup mission for The Merryweather Heist in Grand Theft Auto V. Trevor steals a yellow submersible hanging off a freighter at the Port of Los Santos. The submersible is needed in both versions of the heist, so this setup is unavoidable.

Walkthrough

  1. Drive to the freighter at the port.
  2. Either sneak aboard, deal with the single guard and release the sub using the control panel, or shoot the cables from the dock with a sniper rifle.
  3. Pilot the sub through the port to the marked spot.
  4. Floyd lifts it onto a flatbed with a crane; drive it to a port warehouse.

Tips

  • Gold medal objectives: finish within 8:30 and steal the submersible without boarding the boat.
  • Shooting the cables from the dock is quicker and fulfills the no-boarding objective.
  • If you board the ship, there is only one guard; avoid him or take him out quietly.

The mission is required for both approaches of The Merryweather Heist.
