You should stock up on snacks and armor before beginning this robbery.
Get the heaviest possible armor for yourself.
Once ready, you can start the robbery by using the computer from your Salvage Yard.
'Start Robbery' option appears once you've completed all the mandatory preparatory missions.
One of the bonus challenges of this mission is to getting to the bridge of the cargo ship without alerting the guards. You can achieve this easily by simply calling for your Buzzard and flying to the cargo ship.
You don't have to drive to Elysian Island and take the Dinghy to the cargo ship. If you take the Dinghy, you're at a higher risk of getting caught by the Coast Guards.
First, call in your CEO vehicle, the Buzzard, and fly to the cargo ship.

Remember, the BF Weevil spawns in a random container every time you do this mission.
Unfortunately, the first container we checked didn't have the car. It had some hazardous toxic material.
The pathway to all the other containers is somewhat connected and you won't have too much trouble getting to them. Just try not to jump down again.
Luckily, our second container had the BF Weevil.
Once you've located the container with the vehicle, go to either side of the container and interact with it to attach a flare.
After that, you need to get into one of the sparrows on the ship and protect the Skylift. This is one of the bonus challenges.
Do not let the Skylift's health drop below 80%.
Fortunately, the enemy air support is minimal since we've completed the optional disruption planning mission.
Once you've cleared the enemy choppers, follow the Skylift into the city, where it will drop the container on a rooftop parking lot.Skylift drops the container with the BF Weevil.Once the Skylift drops the container, open it and the BF Weevil will come out.
Now, just deliver the BF Weevil to your Salvage Yard to complete this robbery mission.
You will also have some enemies chasing you, but you can ignore them as always.
That concludes our Cargo Ship Robbery with all the bonus challenges done.
The Cargo Ship robbery completed with all the bonus challenges.
With the BF Weevil successfully stolen and delivered, The Cargo Ship Robbery is complete.
Selling the Vehicle
You can now sell the BF Weevil to Yusuf Amir for the maximum score of $260,000 or salvage it for a quick $208,000. This vehicle has a lower value than some of the vehicles found in other robbery missions, such as The Gangbanger Robbery.
And salvaging it for a 20% decreased income isn't worth it.
If you choose to sell it, Yusuf, you must drive the vehicle to the docks terminal.
Ensure you do not hit the vehicle on your way to the terminal, as the total payment value decreases with each hit.BF Weevil sold to Yusuf without any damage. So, no payment loss.
Cash Reward
Selling to Yusuf: $260,000
Salvaging Parts: $208,000
