Cargo Ship Robbery Scope Out: Docks Intel Guide

The Docks Intel Scope Out mission is one of the setup missions of The Cargo Ship Robbery in GTA Online's The Chop Shop DLC. The first step in planning your robbery is to successfully scope out the Elysian Island docks and the target cargo ship.

You must take a picture of three points of interest at the Elysian Island docks.

Point of Interest 1: Shipping Manifest

The first point of interest is a shipping manifest inside a small office cabin.

There is one guard outside the office. Even though he is facing away from the cabin, he will come after you once you get inside.

The best way to deal with this situation is to knock out the guard using a non-lethal melee weapon. Equip a melee weapon and wait for the guard to enter the cabin as you wait for him.

Once he gets inside, take him out before he can alert the others in the area.

Once the guard has been taken care of, you can take a picture of the shipping manifest and send it to Jamal to register your first point of interest.

Point of Interest 2: Container Lock

The second point of interest is the container lock. You will see a container with a blue arrow on the lock of the container.

Be careful of the vision cones of the workers and try not to stay in them for too long, or you will get detected.

Point of Interest 3: Main Containers on Ship

The third point of interest is the main set of containers on the ship.

Once you've taken the pictures of all the points of interest, return to the Salvage Yard to complete the scope out mission.

With the Docks successfully scoped, you are ready to move on to the Preparatory Tasks.
