The crew starts below deck right next to the server room, which cannot be accessed until near the end of the heist. Players must make their way around the yacht to find an indicated laptop located in a few specific spots on either decks. Hacking the laptop will yield the colored tag marking where the money is stashed (though this clue will also be seen next to the laptop) and the four locations where the money is stashed.
The stashes can be located in any of the four levels of the yacht, which the laptop will specify which deck and what location they are stashed in including food carts, lifeboat storage, private rooms, cigar/wine collections, aquariums or book shelves. At this point, it is recommended that the crew split up to search each deck individually to speed up the process. Caution should be taken as each deck can have multiple guards patrolling the same area, however their patrol routes are fixed and thus easily maneuvered. Civilians may also be present in certain locations prompting players to either avoid passing through or to tie/kill them. There are also artifacts and paintings to be secured should players wish to earn a little extra pay. Loot and body bags can be thrown out the windows off the yacht to be secured or to be disposed.
Once all stashes all secured, Bain will prompt the crew to return to hack the laptop to grant them access to the server room (20 seconds) located below deck to steal the hard drive. The server room can be entered either from the starting point or near the kitchen. Once inside, the crew needs to shut off four machines which feed the servers coolant. The path needed to reach the coolant pumps is randomized and sometimes requires maneuvering a maze of lasers. Shutting all four coolant pumps, the crew will then need to press four manual override switches in order to open the hard drive storage. Each override switch has a delay before needing to press the next, during which players should avoid the guards patrolling the room as their paths navigate around the switches. On lower difficulties there is only one guard patrolling this area and on even the highest difficulty, there will only be two. The crawlspaces will have active lasers, thus players must be careful and time when they can move through them.
Upon pressing all four override switches, the players can then take the hard drive stored in a glass case near the switches and escape through the doors leading back to the spawn point.
There is no camera presence. There is a total of 15 guards present on the yacht, all of which are Gensec security guards. Lower Deck(S1) consists of 4 guards, one patrolling in the kitchen, two in the server room, and one patrolling the rest of the floor. Main Deck(A) consists of 6 guards, three patrolling outside on the deck and the room with the aquarium, two patrolling in the hallway of the bedrooms, and one patrolling in the smoking room. Upper Deck(A1) consists of 3 guards, two patrolling on the deck, two patrolling in the dining room, and one in the resting room. Upper Deck 2(A2) consists of 2 guards, one patrolling on the deck and one patrolling in the reading room.
Attendees at a fundraiser party for Washington mayor McKendrick aboard a yacht in New York Harbor reported a suspicious-looking smaller boat approaching the yacht for a few moments and then leaving.
My Notes: Probably nothing. But keeping an eye on this one given the Washington connection and the Payday Gang’s recent antics in New York.

The achievements in this DLC are notoriously buggy, please refer to the hints and tips page for 2 types of workaround to make sure they unlock properly. For most, I would recommend the online workaround, but for the Pass the Ammo achievement, you need to do the online one.
So this heist will most likely need 2 and a half runs to finish. The playthroughs will be as follows:
Brooklyn 10-10 - Finish the heist after placing 8 ammo bags in the ammo cage on OVK or above.
Brooklyn 10-10 - Reach Charon within 6 minutes on OVK or above.
Assets: Ammo Bag, Doctor Bag and Grenade Case
Solo/Co-op: You start off in a derelict apartment building. Cross over the scaffolding to reach the offices and look out of the window to find Charon. There will be highlighted gangsters that will show up in this alley. Reaching the window also alerts the police, so have 1 person concentrate on the outside and everyone else protect them. Onslaughts of police will come for you and Charon will start to pick a lock outside. Take enemies out as soon as they are highlighted to speed up this process.
Eventually, police cars will pull up and you will need to take them out too so Charon can proceed. After multiple waves, he will get through and you will need to get upstairs. Pick the lock here, where you will either open the door or partway through, a dozer will kick it down. Either run past him or take him down. On the roof, you have two choices, jump across to the next roof and drop into the next building, or drop down to the ledge below and enter via the windows.
In this room, there are 2 cages. One will contain ammo and a crowbar and the other will contain a briefcase and some loot such as weapon and money bags. There is also an extra crowbar hidden in this apartment, so I recommend only trying to get into the one cage, to save protecting 2 drills. Whilst that is going, you also need to take out highlighted gangsters that will pop up in the windows across the street and try to snipe you and Charon.
Once they are cleared and you have the briefcase and crowbar, Charon will direct you to meet up with him. Get upstairs and use the crowbar to open the elevator shaft door and go down it to meet Charon. All you have to do now is get to the marked escape point and hold out until the escape arrives. This is easier said than done, as there is most likely a SWAT van on Deathwish sitting in the first area, and you will be assaulted by multiple tasers and dozers during the holdout. Once the heist is complete, you will unlock:
Brooklyn 10-10 - Finish the heist on DW or above.
All that is left is to go on Overkill and get the other 2 achievements mentioned above. Reaching Charon in 6 minutes will take some attempts, and a larger group will be best to get through this faster. Of course, also bringing C4/a saw will speed it up immensely, as you can get straight into the cages to get the crowbar and briefcase.
So I will start by saying, this heist is annoying, but not all that hard. Most of the objectives in this heist are in randomised locations, making it harder to pinpoint everything for you, so the descriptions will be a bit vague at points. This is going to be split up into 2 runs:
Assets: None (we're trying not to kill anyone after all)
Solo/Co-op: The first objective you will have is to reach the marked laptop. This can be in a variety of locations, from the lower deck to the nearer end of upper deck level 1 to the far end of upper deck level 1. Next to the laptop is a coloured sticker. Take note of this colour, as all of the money bags will be inside cupboards/closets etc. with a sticker of this colour on. Next, the laptop screen will flash. 4 different locations on the boat will flash, these indicate what the money bags are stored in (2 per place). Lower Deck is obvious, the Main Deck is where you started, Upper Deck Level 1 is the one with rooms 101-104 on it for reference and Upper Deck Level 2 is the one with the bookshelves on it.
Make note of the 4 locations (this is why co-op is recommended for the speedrun, as someone can go straight to at least UDL1 to prepare for anything there or on L2) and try to find those objects. It's hard to explain everything, so I will explain some of the less obvious ones. The lifeboats are the white oval-shaped containers dotted around the Main Deck and the Wine and Cigar area is at the far end of UDL1, the rest should be pretty self-explanatory in terms of being able to spot the objects/places.
When you find a money bag, all you need to do is throw it overboard, so out of a window, off the side of the deck. Anything works. You also don't need to close windows, so feel free to open whichever is nearest to you. Once you have thrown all 8 bags overboard, you will need to interact with the laptop again and make your way to the Lower Deck. On the opposite side from where the fridge room is, is the door to the security room. Once the unlocking procedure is finished, the door will open. There are 2 guards in here to avoid, who patrol the upper deck. They can also see you through the grated floor , so be careful.
Underneath the floor, there are 4 valves that you need to turn, there are also passages (some have lasers in them) between each of these, meaning you don't have to go back upstairs to access them all. Once all of these have been turned, you need to press 4 buttons on the columns themselves in a randomised sequence then grab a hard drive. There is a cool little glitch though, you can actually press the buttons from underneath, and also grab the hard drive from underneath the room too. This means you don't need to risk going by the 2 guards to get the hard drive and can get upstairs and back to where you started to escape, unlocking:
Yacht Heist - Finish the heist on DW or above.
if you finished on Deathwish, as well as:
Yacht Heist - Finish the heist without killing anyone.
if you didn't kill anyone.
All that is left now, is to do it in under 6 minutes on Overkill. Again, I highly recommend doing this in co-op to speed up the part before getting into the security room. It also helps as you can take a guard each in the security room so you can freely roam it, shaving off some seconds at least. When you finish it in under 6 minutes, you will unlock:
Yacht Heist - Finish the heist within 6 minutes on OVK or above.

COMMENTS
In case you're wondering, it's on the main deck in the same area as the numbered rooms (where the 4 artifacts are), towards the front of the ship. There's a large glass display containing a statue and a map on the wall inside it, and the painting is inside the wall behind the map.
Lower Deck(S1) consists of 4 guards, one patrolling in the kitchen, two in the server room, and one patrolling the rest of the floor. Main Deck(A) consists of 6 guards, three patrolling outside on the deck and the room with the aquarium, two patrolling in the hallway of the bedrooms, and one patrolling in the smoking room.
I've hacked the computer and gotten 3 out of the 4 money bundle locations. However, one of the hints literally says just lower deck. So I've been running around the lowest floor of the yacht, the one with the kitchen and the server room, and i still can't find the money bundles.

Yacht heist is one of those stealth heists that gets much easier with two people. One thing to keep in mind is that the heist itself is actually well designed. There are always two pathways to take, the left and right sides of the yacht.
Lower Deck is obvious, the Main Deck is where you started, Upper Deck Level 1 is the one with rooms 101-104 on it for reference and Upper Deck Level 2 is the one with the bookshelves on it.
