The Merryweather Heist Walkthrough?
After the cutscene at Floyd's apartment, get into a 4-door vehicle and drive to the airstrip.?
When you arrive at the airstrip, get into the Cargobob and fly up and use the hook to latch onto the submersible. From there, fly towards the waypoint at the Pacific Ocean.?
When you arrive at the waypoint, drop the submersible into the water and automatically switch to Trevor. Open your phone and use the Tracikfy app to begin locating the container.
GOLD MEDAL REQUIREMENT: "SALVAGER"
To achieve this requirement, Trevor needs to find the item in two minutes. To get to the container faster, move the submersible forward so that it gains speed. Avoid descending or ascending and just maneuver the sub like a helicopter while keeping an eye on the red dot on the Trackify app.
Once the container is located, hover above it to attach it to the submersible and then ascend to surface level and to automatically switch to Michael. Fly above the submersible and latch onto it and then fly towards the airstrip.?
Midway thru the flight, a few Merryweather guys will show up to intercept your heist. Switch to Franklin and start shooting them all down.
GOLD MEDAL REQUIREMENT: "SHOW NO MERCENARY"
To achieve this requirement, Franklin must shoot ALL of the pursuers. There are FOUR boats in the ocean and SIX helicopters, so take aim at all of them and keep shooting until each one has blown up.

Once Franklin has disposed of the last helicopter, switch to Michael and fly back to the airstrip. Drop the submersible at the waypoint and then land the Cargobob to complete the mission!
