Brendan Darcy

Background

Brendan Darcy is an Australian sailor who captains the GTA Online Protagonist's personal Galaxy Super Yacht. He was added with the Executives and Other Criminals update on December 15, 2015. In one line of dialogue he claims to have been an admiral in the Royal Australian Navy.

Role in GTA Online

As captain, Brendan can move the yacht to other mooring locations for $25,000, a fee that drops to $10,000 once the six A Superyacht Life missions are finished. He can also send the yacht's tender or helicopter to the nearest shore so the owner can reach it, and he operates the defense systems, warning off players who come too close while they are active.

The Los Santos Summer Special update of 2020 turned him into a mission contact. Players can start jobs from the bridge or by calling him. In the first mission, intruders sneak aboard and steal documents naming Brendan and the player "permanent residents of international waters", along with the jetskis; the protagonist tracks them to the Vespucci Canals and recovers the papers. Brendan identifies the thieves as members of the Puerto Del Sol Yacht Club and suggests sinking their boats in revenge. A later job sends the player to salvage cargo from a sunken barge, during which the Kkangpae seize the yacht and kidnap Brendan and the bartender, forcing a rescue.

Trivia

• He greets the player by reminding them they own an enormous superyacht.
• The yacht's bartender is a regular companion of his.
