Complete walkthrough for Grimhaven Bay Central (3) in The Sinking City 2, including key evidence, optional objectives, and tips for progression.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    On the "Charon" Ship: Collect your belongings from the table. This includes your Letter from J. van der Berg (from the briefcase), your Camera, and your Pistol. To collect the pistol, pick it up, rotate it until the 'eyeball' symbol appears on the handle, and press X to examine it. You will receive 6 .38 pistol rounds. Note that your gun is not loaded and must be reloaded before firing.
  2. 2
    Additional Evidence on Ship: Use your camera to take a picture of the mounted fish (Photo of a trophy plate). Examine the flyer on the desk (Flyer). Loot the locker to the right of the desk for random ammunition and crafting materials.
  3. 3
    Exit the Boat: Press Triangle to climb onto the dock. You will automatically speak with Johannes van der Berg. Choose dialogue options to progress: "About my problem.", "Where is Robert Throgmorton?", "I need somewhere to stay.", "How do I get to Devil's Reef?", and finally "Goodbye."
  4. 4
    Find Robert Throgmorton: Proceed north along the pier to a sign with directions. Turn right towards the "exit" and go up the stairs to speak with Robert Throgmorton. Choose dialogue options to progress: "What happened to your son?", "Who are the Innsmouthers?", "What do you know about the visions?", "I can try to find Albert.", "Tell me more about the case.", and finally "I'll be going."
  5. 5
    Optional: Titania Lifeboat: If you ask Robert Throgmorton about the lifeboat, he will give directions. Return to the sign, go left down a path, then left towards the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades. This is an optional investigation that grants 140 XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
  6. 6
    Evidence in Lifeboat: Inspect the lifeboat name (TITANIA). Examine the Diving Helmet (rotate and search the front faceplate; be aware of sanity drain). Find Albert Throgmorton's will on a seat. You may need to press Triangle to climb inside the lifeboat.
Tips
  • The Submachine Gun and 30 .45 ABP rounds are awarded if you purchased the Necronomicon Edition or associated DLC. This weapon consumes ammo rapidly.
  • Consider putting your free Skill Point (if applicable from DLC) into the Absolute Clarity Mind skill for a 5% XP bonus.
  • Lootable objects (marked with a symbol) can be repeatedly looted for ammunition and crafting materials. Their contents reset when you leave and return to the area. Larger amounts of loot may indicate a more dangerous area.
  • The diving helmet in the lifeboat drains sanity; do not hold it for too long.
  • Completing the optional Titania Lifeboat investigation allows you to return Albert's Will to Robert Throgmorton for an additional conversation.

Completing the main objectives on the ship and speaking with Robert Throgmorton progresses the main story. Completing the optional Titania Lifeboat investigation yields 140 XP and unlocks an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
