GTA 6 Clarion: the Speedboat in Trailer 1

The yellow speedboat with a black hull racing through the bay 24 seconds into Trailer 1, “Clarion” painted along its side. Fans use that word as its name; whether it is the model, the maker or an owner’s choice is not known.

Identified

Identified in Rockstar’s footage by outside editors; Rockstar has not named it. Rockstar has published no vehicle statistics for GTA 6, so this page prints none.

Clarion in GTA 6 — is that the name, and the real boat

Each answer carries how settled it is and who settled it. Where nobody has said, the card says that instead of guessing — and says what stays open even after the answer.

Has the Clarion been seen in GTA 6?

Shown, not stated

Yes — in Trailer 1 at 0:24, and in an official screenshot.

A yellow speedboat with a black hull and Clarion on its side races through the bay (Trailer 1 at 0:24). A red and white boat of the same shape among many in a Leonida Keys screenshot. These are identifications made from Rockstar’s own footage — Rockstar has not named the vehicle in any of them.

Still open — Whether it can be driven, bought or modified — none of that shows in a frame.

Is “Clarion” the boat’s name in GTA 6?

Nobody has said

Not necessarily. “Clarion” is the word painted on the hull in Trailer 1 — it could be the model, the maker, or one owner’s name for this boat.

The yellow boat with a black hull racing through the bay in Trailer 1 has “Clarion” lettered along its side. GTA 6 Intel says outright that it is unclear whether that names the make or is simply what the owner called the boat; GTA Wiki lists the boat as unnamed, under its real-world look-alike. A red and white one in a Leonida Keys screenshot is the same shape — whether it carries the same word is not stated.

Still open — Its name in the game — settled by an in-game label, which no published frame shows.

What real boat is the Clarion based on?

Shown, not stated

A Cigarette 38’ Top Gun offshore powerboat — GTABase adds the Cigarette 515.

GTA Wiki, GTA 6 Intel and GTA Intel all name the Cigarette 38’ Top Gun, a long, low offshore racing boat; GTABase names it together with the Cigarette 515. It races at 0:24 of Trailer 1 alongside two other speedboats GTA Wiki matches to a Skater 388 and a Frauscher 1017 GT.

Still open — Rockstar never names the real boats it draws from — this is a reading of the hull.

How we checked this page

The question that shaped this page came from comparing two references: GTA Wiki files the boat as unnamed, under its look-alike, while GTA 6 Intel says the hull lettering may be a make or just a name. Both put it at 0:24 of Trailer 1. The Cigarette 38’ Top Gun reading comes from GTA Wiki, GTA 6 Intel and GTA Intel together; the Cigarette 515 is GTABase’s addition and is shown as that.
