The Skipper is a vehicle in Saints Row 2.
Overview[]
It is the largest drivable boat, and one of the slowest boats in the game. No weapons can be used while driving it, since Playa is in an enclosed cabin.
There is a Saints variant of the Skipper, which is unlocked in the Dock Garage after completing all 7 boat races.
Location[]
- Museum District docks.
- Athos Bay docks.

Trivia[]
- The Cheat for this vehicle is #829.
- The name comes from the term skipper, which is another word for "captain".
- Like the Convict, it also has a horn, which sounds more like a steam horn.
- When exiting the Skipper, the door on the back opens although Playa is teleported beside the boat or to the nearest piece of land. This also happens on the Convict.
- When the Saints variant of the Skipper is unlocked in Saints Row 2, the on-screen text says "You have unlocked a special variant yacht, now available at an owned dock.". The "Unlockables" menu lists it as a "Race Boat", although the Skipper has the slowest speed of any boat, making it a bad choice for racing.
- The Skipper is the heaviest vehicle and boat in the game, along with the Convict.
- The Bradygames guide to Saints Row 2 show the image of a Convict labelled as a Skipper.[1]
