Boat Drinks

Key takeaways

The mission is primarily a character quest. Preparation matters less than following Kerry's questline and paying attention to the conversation choices aboard the yacht.

• Part of Kerry's questline Boat Drinks becomes available after the earlier missions involving Kerry Eurodyne and the Us Cracks, with A Like Supreme serving as the important preceding step.
• A social mission with optional conflict The yacht sequence is driven by exploration, conversations and the party rather than a mandatory boss fight. The situation can still become hostile if V chooses aggressive responses or handles the encounter carelessly.
• Romance-sensitive choices Kerry's romance is tied to V's body and voice configuration as well as the player's dialogue choices. Boat Drinks contains a significant opportunity to either encourage or decline that direction.
• No specialist build is required There is no need to bring a particular weapon, cyberware setup or skill build. A prepared combat loadout is still useful if the yacht encounter turns violent.

Boat Drinks overview

Boat Drinks is a late-game Cyberpunk 2077 side mission about Kerry Eurodyne's attempt to reclaim control of his public image and personal life. V joins Kerry and the Us Cracks aboard a yacht, where the evening develops into a mixture of celebration, vandalism and personal confrontation.

Boat Drinks follows the events of A Like Supreme and continues Kerry Eurodyne's optional storyline. Rather than sending V through a conventional combat gauntlet, the mission uses a social setting to bring Kerry, the Us Cracks and V together. The yacht provides the mission's enclosed play space, with conversations and player choices carrying more weight than equipment or build optimization.

The mission's central tension comes from Kerry's relationship with his former band, his discomfort with the entertainment industry and his desire to make a decisive gesture instead of remaining trapped by old resentment. V can support Kerry's rebellious plan, participate in the party and decide how directly to respond to Kerry's advances. Some dialogue choices can affect the tone of the relationship and whether the mission becomes an important step toward romance.

Boat Drinks is easy to miss because it belongs to Kerry's side-mission chain rather than the main story. Completing the preceding Kerry missions and responding to his calls or messages is important if you want to reach it. The mission itself is relatively compact, but it contains major character and relationship material, so players who want to avoid spoilers should treat the later sections as spoiler-sensitive.

WalkthroughSpoilers

1. 01

   Unlock Boat Drinks

   Finish A Like Supreme and wait for Kerry's follow-up

   Boat Drinks is gated behind the earlier Kerry Eurodyne storyline, so complete A Like Supreme before looking for this mission. If the quest does not appear immediately, continue playing or use the in-game wait function until Kerry contacts V; do not treat the delay as a failed objective.

   Location: V's open-world map and phone

   TipKeep Kerry's questline active in the Journal and answer his contact when the call or message arrives.

2. 02

   Meet Kerry

   Travel to the docks and meet Kerry

   Use the mission marker to reach the waterfront meeting point. Kerry is waiting for V there, and approaching him starts the yacht sequence; make any equipment or save adjustments before speaking to him if you want a fallback.

   Location: The docks

   Watch outOnce the conversation begins, the mission moves into a largely self-contained sequence on the yacht.

   Checkpoint
3. 03

   Board the yacht

   Board the yacht with Kerry and the Us Cracks

   Follow Kerry to the yacht and enter when the game prompts V to do so. The opening section establishes the mood of the gathering, so stay near the group and use the available conversation prompts rather than wandering away from the active objective.

   Location: The yacht

   Checkpoint
4. 04

   Join the party

   Explore the yacht and speak with the group

   Move through the accessible areas of the yacht and talk to Kerry and the Us Cracks as they become available. These exchanges provide context for Kerry's anger and ambitions, and rushing past them can make the later choices feel abrupt even though the mission can still progress.

   Location: Yacht interior and deck

   TipExhaust the available conversations before advancing the next objective if you want the most context from the scene.

5. 05

   Take part in the yacht gathering

   Support or challenge Kerry's plan

   The gathering develops into an act of rebellion against the yacht's owner and the world Kerry believes has used him. Choose dialogue that matches V's attitude, then follow the objective marker as the party moves through the boat; the tone of the scene changes according to V's responses.

   Location: Yacht deck and interior

   Watch outAggressive responses can turn a social scene into a fight, so save beforehand if you want to compare outcomes.

   Checkpoint
6. 06

   Resolve the disturbance

   Handle the confrontation on board

   If security or other hostile occupants become involved, use the yacht's corridors, doors and deck space to control the engagement. Keep moving toward the active marker after the encounter and check the immediate area before leaving, because the confined layout can make it easy to lose sight of Kerry's group.

   Location: Yacht

   TipShort-range weapons and quick-hack control effects are practical in the yacht's tight spaces, but no specific build is required.

   Watch outDo not leave the mission area while the confrontation is active; abandoning the objective can reset the sequence.

   Checkpoint
7. 07

   Respond to Kerry

   Talk privately with Kerry

   After the party's main action, remain with Kerry for the personal conversation that follows. This is the point to choose whether V reciprocates his interest, flirts without committing or makes it clear that the relationship should remain non-romantic.

   Location: Yacht deck

   Watch outRomance-related dialogue is consequential for Kerry's storyline and should be treated as missable if you are pursuing a specific relationship outcome.

8. 08

   Finish the outing

   Complete the final yacht scene

   Follow the remaining prompts and watch the closing interaction rather than fast-travelling away. The final exchange provides the immediate resolution for the evening and leads directly to the mission's completion state.

   Location: Yacht

   Checkpoint
9. 09

   Complete Boat Drinks

   Leave the yacht and close the mission

   Exit the yacht when the objective updates and allow the completion notification to appear. Afterward, check the Journal and phone for Kerry's follow-up content, since the result of Boat Drinks can determine how his optional storyline continues.

   Location: The docks and surrounding waterfront

   TipMake a manual save after completion if you want to preserve the relationship outcome for later missions.

Mission mechanics

Boat Drinks is structured as a guided social encounter rather than a traditional objective chain built around repeated combat arenas. The yacht functions as a compact exploration space, with dialogue prompts and movement between the deck and interior advancing the scene. Because the active group can move as the sequence changes, the safest approach is to follow the marker and avoid straying far from Kerry.

The mission can shift from conversation to conflict. If fighting starts, the yacht's narrow passages reduce the value of long sightlines and make repositioning more important than raw damage output. V can use ordinary weapons, cyberware and quickhacks available in the broader game, but the mission does not require a special item or unique combat tactic.

Dialogue is the mission's most important mechanic. Kerry's storyline is sensitive to whether V validates his actions, pushes back against him or responds positively to his romantic interest. Players who want a particular outcome should save before the private conversation and avoid selecting an answer simply because it sounds playful; the available wording can communicate a stronger commitment than expected.

What works and what does not

PhasesSpoilers

1. 1

   Dockside meeting

   Starts: Speak with Kerry at the marked waterfront location.

   V meets Kerry and joins the planned yacht outing. This phase is non-combat and establishes the mission's immediate objective.

   • Finish preparations before speaking with Kerry if you want to preserve a pre-mission save.
2. 2

   Yacht gathering

   Starts: Board the yacht and follow the group into the party sequence.

   Kerry, V and the Us Cracks interact aboard the yacht while the mission reveals the reason for the gathering.

   • Stay close to the group and explore the available dialogue before moving to the next objective.
3. 3

   Yacht confrontation

   Starts: The party's act of rebellion escalates and the active objective changes.

   Depending on the player's approach, the scene can involve hostile occupants or a more direct confrontation. The environment is confined, with the deck and interior offering different sightlines.

   • Close-quarters security pressureTell Hostile occupants appear as the social sequence breaks down.Answer Use the yacht's interior cover, control quickhacks and move toward the objective marker instead of getting trapped in a corridor.
   • Keep track of the objective marker because the group can move after the confrontation.
   • Save before the party if you want to compare a more aggressive approach with a less violent one.
4. 4

   Private conversation with Kerry

   Starts: The main party sequence ends and V remains with Kerry.

   The mission shifts back to dialogue and presents its most important relationship-sensitive exchange.

   • Read each response carefully; a flirtatious answer may carry more relationship weight than its wording initially suggests.

Choices and consequencesSpoilers

• Encourage Kerry's romantic interest

  V can move the relationship toward romance if the character's romance requirements are satisfied. This choice affects the tone of the ending and Kerry's subsequent storyline.

  Spoiler
• Keep the relationship platonic

  V can decline or avoid the romantic direction while still completing the mission and supporting Kerry's personal quest.

  Spoiler
• Respond aggressively during the yacht sequence

  The social encounter can become more openly violent, changing how V handles the occupants and the immediate flow of the scene.

  Spoiler
• Use a more restrained response

  V can preserve a less confrontational tone for the gathering, although the mission still reaches its planned yacht-party resolution.
