Brian Heder's Boat Yard

Overview

Rockstar introduces Brian Heder as "a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys." The same profile says he is "still moving product through his boat yard with his third wife, Lori," and that he has been around long enough to let others do his dirty work.

That single line is everything Rockstar has said about the place so far. It ties the boat yard to Brian, to Lori and to the smuggling trade in the Keys, which Rockstar also connects to Jason's work for local drug runners.

Brian's Marina in the Launch Trailer

Rockstar's Launch Trailer, released on October 15, 2026, opens in the Keys. At 0:03 a roadside billboard reads "Welcome to The Keys", and at 0:05 the camera looks down on a waterfront business with a rooftop sign that reads "Brian's Marina". Boats sit in tall dry-stack racks along the side of a long shed, and a red banner on the racks reads "Rent a Rack" with a 786-555 phone number. Bays, small islands and boats on the water fill the background.

The next shots stay at a boat yard. From 0:07 Jason, long-haired, in a backwards cap and a tank top, polishes the hull of a white and teal cabin cruiser with a buffer while another worker sands the upper deck. At 0:12 he takes a phone call outside among parked boats and jet skis, and at 0:14 he stands on a quay looking at a floatplane moored in the water.

Is it Brian Heder's yard?Unconfirmed

Rockstar's text still does not name Brian Heder's boat yard, and nothing on screen says whose marina this is. The order of the shots makes the reading hard to avoid, though. Rockstar's profile puts Brian's boat yard in the Keys, the trailer shows a "Welcome to The Keys" sign, then a business called Brian's Marina, then Jason working on boats. Rockstar also says Jason lives at one of Brian's properties and helps with his business.

We treat Brian's Marina as the probable name of the yard until Rockstar confirms it. Whether players can store or rent boats there, as the "Rent a Rack" banner offers to customers in the game world, is not known.

What is not confirmed

Rockstar has not named the boat yard, shown it in a captioned screenshot, or said where in the Keys it sits. It is also unconfirmed whether players can visit it or whether it features in missions.

Map note

The map marker sits in the Leonida Keys because Rockstar places Brian's smuggling there. Its exact position on the map is illustrative.
