The Best Yacht To Buy In GTA Online

There is a small fleet of yachts to buy in GTA Online but one is more worth your money than the others.

By Joey Carr on July 5, 2023 at 12:02PM PDT

There is perhaps not a clearer sign of wealth in GTA Online than owning a yacht. As in real life, a yacht is the ultimate flex of luxury in the world of Los Santos. When Rockstar Games introduced the Galaxy Super Yacht fleet, they released three different yachts for players to purchase. All three of these gigantic boats are well worth your hard-earned GTA cash, as they all boast amenities as far as the eye can see. The main differences in the yachts lie in their price and how many features they have. However, as you'll see, those features don't drift too far apart from yacht to yacht.

Since the yachts start at the sky-high price of $6 million, players have asked if going for the most expensive yacht is actually worth it or if they can get by with the least expensive. It's a similar question that players have asked in regards to cars, jets, and any other property available in the online world of Los Santos. In this guide, we'll be going over all three of the yachts in GTA Online and determining which is the best to buy based on all of the factors.

Kicking us off is The Orion, the least expensive yacht in GTA Online. Of course, the term "least expensive" is used lightly here, as The Orion still costs a whopping $6 million in GTA cash. The Orion, and the other two yachts, are equipped with a 210-foot body and the same basic outside appearance as the two more expensive Galaxy Super Yachts in the game. There's a sun deck on top for sunbathing or throwing parties but no hot tub, unfortunately. Also on the exterior is one single helipad and storage for two vehicles, the Shitzu Tropic and Speedophile Seashark jetski. On the interior, The Orion is equipped with three luxurious guest rooms. Like the rest of the yachts, you can't actually drive The Orion. What you can do is pay your captain to park it somewhere and have it ready for you when you want to come aboard at a certain location. You can also complete six A Superyacht Life missions to reduce your overall operating costs and make some money with your yacht in the process.

The one aspect of The Orion that's truly lacking is that it doesn't spawn with a helicopter and only has one helipad. While not a huge problem, the other two yachts on this list have these aspects over The Orion. If you're in the market for a yacht and can spend $6 million, then you can likely also spend another million for the next yacht on this list. This could make The Orion obsolete unless you're truly strapped for cash.

For one million more than The Orion ($7 million), you can own The Pisces. Compared to The Orion, The Pisces spawns with a helicopter and has two helipads, a hot tub, and space for five vehicles. Those vehicles are the Buckingham Swift (helicopter), Pegassi Speeder, Nagasaki Dinghy, and two Speedophile Seashark jetskis. Aside from the Speeder, the yacht will spawn with all of the aforementioned vehicles, letting you and some friends get to shore or to another location with ease. Having the extra helipad is also nice to either have a friend land on the yacht or to keep a spare in case something happens to your first.

$7 million is considered the sweet spot for the line of Galaxy Super Yachts. You'll see why when we go over the last yacht on this list.

The Aquarius

The big daddy of them all, the Aquarius is the last and most expensive yacht on this list. The final Galaxy Super Yacht of the fleet costs an eye-gouging $8 million. This makes it the most expensive piece of property you can buy in GTA Online by a country mile. The Aquarius has everything The Pisces has, including the two helipads and hot tub, but has room for seven vehicles instead of five. However, those two extra vehicles are two additional Seashark jetskis, which is really only good for if you have half a dozen friends on your yacht at the same time.

The main point of The Aquarius in GTA Online is to flex on other players. Its price point is relatively unwarranted due to the lack of amenities compared to The Pisces. However, if you're a collector of the most luxurious items in Los Santos, The Aquarius needs to be your next purchase.

The verdict

As you might have expected from the descriptions of each yacht, The Pisces is what we consider to be the best Galaxy Super Yacht in GTA Online. It features a great price point and is a huge step up from The Orion at one million dollars more. The Aquarius simply doesn't offer enough compared to The Pisces to warrant it being the best bang for your buck. Unless you truly want to show off your wealth, going with The Pisces is the best option in GTA Online.

well it’s been a while since we’ve taken a look at the luxury super yotts in GTA 5 online so time for a comprehensive breakdown my name’s Dan and I’m an old grumpy gamer we have a lot to cover here the yacht is a complex piece of Kit with a few bits of functionality and lots of options so we’ll be going through why want to buy a yacht budget and purchase options return on investment had to purchase one calling in your heli boat or a job moving the yacht management defenses and how to host an exotic dancer so first things first why on Earth would you want a yacht well there’s a few core reasons the luxury heli depending on your budget your new yacht might come with a helicopter which can be called in for a small fee they have specific spawn points so they’re not quite as convenient as a sparrow or an oppressor but they’re still nice watercraft so that’s a few jet skis and a lovely power booat all of which are station off the back of the yacht an additional spawn point unsurprisingly the Yachts have a bedroom so you can spawn in this can be handy if your businesses are near the Southwest coast or you want quicker access to Los Santos airport anti-g Griefer measures the OT comes with a neat defense system that gives you safe haven it has a couple of caveats but this is a great way to deal with vehicle based idiots access to Executive missions and that the yacht gives you access to a facility specific set of missions they’re designed for noobs can be done solo and it’s a hell of a flex I mean there is a nice facility to have and one of the most expensive things you can own in the game so it’s a cracking way to show off right budget and purchase options we have three different options to choose from with the Ys oh and don’t worry about the pricing on screen I picked this up during an event week before we get into pricing every yacht is 210 ft and comes with a bar guest room and the ability to host uh professional friends you might meet while spending time at the Vanilla Unicorn the oran at $6 million comes with a single helip pad a small twers canopy Runabout and one jet ski the Pisces at $7 million and this one comes with two helip pads the Swift Deluxe helicopter pagari speeder arguably the best boat in the game a dingy and two jet skis oh and a hot tub and finally the Aquarius at $8 million this is the same size and birth as the other yachts and has two helip pads a hot tub a dingy same as the Pisces but also comes with a super volito carbon and the Toro and four jet skis so I’ve gone for the Aquarius here but only because it was on super special if I was paying full price the Pisces at 7 million is the better buy in my opinion the speedboat and the helicopter that comes with the Pisces is much better and really how often do you use four jet skiis at the same damn time next up is the trim Chrome is included but you can step up with gold fittings for an additional 750 $50,000 lighting and color schemes is next again there’s a free option but if you want to pick from the eight other available options it’ll set you back anywhere up to 600 Grand sticking with the Aesthetics the paint job is next starting with the white paint job and gray trim included and with 12 options ranging in price up to $650,000 and the final option is your flag and yacht name both of which are included in the original price so your minimum out of pocket on this one is $6 million which gets you the base model yacht and nothing else if you have around 88 million to spend though the Pisces with a few aesthetic upgrades would be the go to return on investment now there are six missions in total and depending on your skill with a chopper boat and Firearm they’ll take you between 8 and 20 minutes each and typically pay between 20 and $30,000 which means an absolute minimum of 200 missions or 27 hours to break even if you go for the absolute cheapest option and get the maximum pay out every time Honestly though it would be more like like 300 missions in 75 hours of grinding at maximum difficulty to get your money back so great Flex rubbish investment you do get this sweet Captain’s outfit though which is nice right so once you’ve decided on your model find somewhere safe open your phone and head to the internet then to vehicles and transport Doc te’s and click the Galaxy super yacht Panner pick your yacht and set your options click byy now and you’ll immediately receive a notification and a new contact close out the internet by hitting the X top right and you’ll see a new notification with the YT icon top left as well as a message from the captain of your new vessel after that you can head back out to the free roam Lobby and you’ll notice another notification this time about your chopper if your yacht comes with one and I’ll cover how to call that in in a bit when you’re ready head over to your new yacht and take a look around and after you’ve had a bit of an explore head to the helm and that’s where the captain hangs out and into the yellow marker to start your yacht missions okay so there’s a few additional things that you can do with your yacht which can come in handy soon uh you can call in a heli a boat or the job so firstly if you’ve gone for the Pisces or an aquarius you can call in your helicopter to do this open your phone and go to contacts toggle down to the captain and give him a call once he picks up select request helicopter which will s you back $1,000 now this is a bit old school so the chopper will spawn in one of a few dozen set places around the map which was great back in the day but it is pretty inconvenient if you’re used to the sparrow or a mark 2 oppressor but anyway once it’s spawned in you’ll see a new Chopper icon on the map head over and you’re good to go while we’re on the captain’s phone you may have also noticed a few other options you can use this same menu to call in your premium boat which will again spawn somewhere up the coast oh and you can request a personal vehicle or your next job to should you feel so inclined the next thing you can do is move your yacht around the coastline now again this is a little old school so you can’t actually drive the damn thing sadly it’s not the kazaka but you can have the yacht quick travel to different locations in the lobby albeit at a particularly ouchy cost of 25 Grand a throw to do this head to the helm on your yacht stand next to the captain to trigger the button prompt top left of the screen click the button noted and bring up the location menu then cycle through the locations until you found the one you’re after yacht defenses and management is next to access these you can be on the yacht or anywhere outside on the free Ro map head to the interaction menu That’s am on your keyboard double squares on the Xbox controller or swipe on your PlayStation scroll down to services and Galaxy Super yot from there there’s a few things you can do skipping the defenses for a moment we can set up who has access to the boats jet skis and Chopper if you have one we can also change who can access the yacht itself and what type of clothing people wear in the hot tub if your yacht has one finally let’s scroll back up to defenses when these are on and don’t forget to set exclusions but when these are on any player in the free roam Lobby in a vehicle will be targeted by the defense system oh and it also takes care of guided missiles from the caku but here’s the rub it’s only players in vehicles if someone swims to your yacht they won’t be targeted and will be able to board the vessel so it’s great for Mark 2 and Jet Griefers but not so good for people who are just running around being a Pon in the ass oh and there’s one more thing with the defenses when they’re on no one can draw a weapon no one it’s great because you can’t have a griefer come in and shoot up the place but it also means you can’t draw and shoot anyone your own self finally if you’ve made friends with one of the ladies at the Vanilla Unicorn you can invite them over to party with you and your friends to do this you’ll need to have spent a bit of coin at the Vanilla Unicorn targeting um sorry befriending one specific dancer doesn’t matter which one just pick one you think is pretty and focus on them once you’ve been given their number you can head back to the yacht from the outside deck open your phone and navigate to the contacts scroll down to the name of the dancer and give them a call and invite invite them to your apartment once she hangs up immediately walk into the cabin after a few moments your friend will buzz and you’ll see the controls to let them in top left let them in and you can kick on with them for as long as you like and that’s about it thanks for watching stay safe wash your hands we’ll see you in the next video
