Time Stamps:
00:00 - Passing "All Hands on Deck!" whilst obtaining the EC/EC2 (Exclusive Color and Exclusive Secondary Color) Black Washington
16:25 - Showing off the EC/EC2 Washington
This Method will work EXACTLY as shown on PS2, Xbox, PC, Mobile, and Definitive Edition since all of these Platforms/Versions allow the Method shown in the Video. Though, if you're playing on PS2 Version 1.40 and possibly some other PS2 Versions, there is an even easier way to get off the Yacht and I recommend that Method over this Method. You can use this Method to get off the Yacht in the Definitive Edition, but it's not needed due to the exclusive and much easier Method, instead. In the end, the Method shown in the Video is the most commonly used Method overall and likely the one you'll be using to obtain the EC/EC2 Washington.
If you're playing the Definitive Edition on Version 1.02 or below, the Washington featured in the Mission will be Black as it should be. However, if you're on Version 1.03 or higher, the Washington will actually spawn in Traffic Default Colors and APPEAR to not be special. If you were to obtain one of these and allow the Garage to close down on it, you'd see something very bizarre take place. The Traffic Default Colored Washington will be some kind of Bright Neon Green or Hot Pink Color! Both Colors would be EC/EC2, but I'd imagine this is some kind of BUG and this is the side effect caused by it! Even if you obtain the EC/EC2 Washington on Patch 1.02 and below and have it Black and then update your game to 1.03 and above, the same thing would happen and your EC/EC2 Washington will not be Black anymore!
Note that sometimes the Speeder just doesn't show up during the Mission, thus resulting in you having to reload and try again. I am not sure what the cause of this is, but to help counter it is to look in the direction of the Speeder at the dock before going down to the lower level of the Yacht. I show this in the Video.
For unknown reasons, and this seems to only be true for the PS2 Versions, the longer you take to push the EC/EC2 Washington back to the Garage, the "harder" it becomes to push. It can get so bad that you won't be able to move it any further before the next part of the Mission begins! The idea is to be quick. I have not experienced this issue on any other Platforms out there. I've obtained it on PS2, PC, Mobile, and Definitive Edition and there always felt something "different" when it came to PS2 and pushing the EC/EC2 Washington back to the Garage.
Fun Fact - If you are specifically playing Vice City on Xbox, the EC/EC2 Washington featured in this Mission is a White Washington. It's assumed to NOT BE SPECIAL since a White Washington already spawns in traffic and appears to be identical. See that here - youtube.com/watch?v=TVdpKUG6GSg
I am recording this Video on BlueStacks Version 5.8. Game Version is Version 1.09 of GTA Vice City for Android.
