Finding The Boat Engine In Dead Island Riptide

In Dead Island Riptide, the boat engine can be found in a warehouse at Marik's Marina. After receiving the quest from Harlow Jordan, players must make their way to Halai Village and ask the villagers about a boat. They will be directed to Marik's Marina, where they can find a boat without an engine. The engine can be found in a workshop building at the end of the marina. Players must defeat enemies and retrieve the engine from a shelf in the corner of the room. With the engine equipped, players can return to the boat and install it to progress in the quest.

The engine is in a warehouse

To find the boat engine in Dead Island Riptide, you must first complete the 'New Beginnings' main quest. You will then be given the ''Find an Engine' quest.

Head to Halai Village and ask the villagers about a boat. They will direct you to Marik's Marina to the east. Once you arrive at the marina, look for a boat moored up against a dock opposite a warehouse. Cross over to the boat and interact with it. As the boat has no engine, it won't go anywhere.

The engine is located in the aforementioned warehouse at the end of the marina. To get there, you will need to cross two thin planks to get past a wall. The warehouse is filled with zombies, so be prepared to fight them off. Once inside, head up the stairs and take out any Walkers you encounter. Go down the opposite stairs and the warehouse will be in front of you.

The engine sits on a shelf in the corner, hidden in the shadows, so you may need to use your flashlight to spot it. When you find it, take note that you won't be able to put it in your inventory—your character will carry it. This means you won't be able to sprint, jump, or hold a weapon, so stay alert and be ready to drop the engine if you need to fight.

The safest way to carry the engine back to the boat is to stick to the waterfront, staying close to the solid ground next to the water. If you encounter any trouble, drop the engine so you can fight without it weighing you down. Once you've made it back to the boat, install the engine on the rear.

Interact with the boat to start the quest

To interact with the boat and start the quest, the player must first speak to Harlow Jordan, who will give them the medium-difficulty main quest "New Beginnings". The player must then go to Halai Village to find a boat.

To get to Halai Village, the player should leave Paradise Survival Camp via the already-destroyed bridge, where they will find a Jeep. They will need to kill the Walkers and Infected nearby before they can get into the Jeep and drive to Halai. The player must then make their way to the safe house in the centre of the village, where they will speak to Jackson. Jackson will tell the player that there are no boats left in Halai, but that they might find one at Marik's Marina.

The player can then choose to drive to the marina or walk via a small pathway. Either way, they will need to kill the zombies inside the marina. The player will then need to head down to the waterway, where they will find a boat moored against a dock. This is where they will need to interact with the boat to start the quest.

The boat is at Marik's Marina

Marik's Marina is a location in the Flooded Jungle in Dead Island: Riptide. It was built by Polish immigrant Marik Zawodny in the 1970s and has since become a popular tourist spot for tours of the jungle waterways and the bay around Henderson.

In the game, the Heroes first arrive at Marik's Marina during the main quest "New Beginnings". Their task is to find a boat for the survivors to use to get around. The boat can be found moored up against a dock opposite a warehouse on the other side of the water. However, the boat has no engine, so the player must then find an outboard motor to make the boat operational.

The engine can be found in the warehouse at the other end of the marina. To get there, the player must go to the end of the marina where they will see two thin planks that allow them to get past a wall. The warehouse is full of zombies, so the player must kill them all before moving further inside. The engine can be found sitting on a shelf in the shadows and must then be carried back to the boat.

The player must be careful when carrying the engine as they will not be able to sprint, jump or hold a weapon, making them very vulnerable to attack. The engine can be installed on the rear of the boat, allowing the player to start travelling by boat.

Marik's Marina is a dangerous location with a lot of enemies, so players should ensure they have good weapons and full health before going there.

The engine is sitting on a shelf

To find the boat engine in Dead Island Riptide, you must first complete the ''New Beginnings' main quest. This quest is given to the player by Harlow Jordan, who asks the player to go to Halai Village to find a boat to get to Henderson.

After dealing with the infected in the village, the player must speak to Jackson, who tells them there are no boats left in Halai, but suggests checking Marik's Marina. Once at the marina, the player must locate a boat and interact with it. The player will then be prompted to find an engine for the boat.

The engine can be found in a warehouse at the end of the marina. The player must navigate past zombies and enter the warehouse, where they will find the engine sitting on a shelf in the shadows. It is recommended to use a flashlight to better spot the engine.

The engine must then be carried back to the boat, which is vulnerable as it cannot be held alongside a weapon. The player must be cautious of incoming zombies and drop the engine if they need to fight. Once the player reaches the boat, they must install the engine at the rear, completing the quest.

The engine must be carried to the boat

To get the boat engine in Dead Island Riptide, you must first complete the 'New Beginnings' main quest. This involves talking to Harlow Jordan, who will ask you to go to Halai Village to find a boat.

Once you reach Halai, you will be directed to Marik's Marina, where you will find a boat without an engine. The engine is located in a warehouse at the end of the marina. To get there, you will need to cross two thin planks to get past a wall. The warehouse will be filled with zombies, so be prepared for a fight.

Once you've defeated the enemies, head inside the warehouse and look for the engine. It will be sitting on a shelf in the shadows, so you may need to use your flashlight to spot it. When you find it, pick it up. Note that carrying the engine will prevent you from sprinting, jumping, or holding a weapon, so stay alert and be ready to drop it if you encounter any zombies on your way back to the boat.

The safest way to carry the engine back to the boat is to stick to the waterfront, hugging the solid ground next to the water. This will minimize the chances of encountering enemies. If you do get into trouble, drop the engine so you can fight more easily.

Once you've made it back to the boat with the engine, install it at the rear of the boat, and you'll be ready to set sail.
