Hull Breach

Hull Breach is a quest in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor.

Part 1
Go to the Mariner; her office is to the immediate left upon entering Far Harbor. She asks the player character to find her a special set of tools to help improve the capabilities of the Hull. They can be found in Eagle's Cove Tannery. The tannery is occupied by ghouls, but is not too extensive. Recover the tools, and return. Exiting the tannery through either the front door, or a back door, will lead to the player character meeting a man named Machete Mike, who claims the tools are a rare set of Pelman's. He offers 2000 caps for them, wherein the player character accepts the offer, but fails the quest; or, refuses the offer without any further conflict. Return the tools to the Mariner, and receive the caps and experience. The next time Far Harbor is visited, large spiked barriers will be found on the outside of the Hull.

Part 2
During, or after completing, Rite of Passage, the Mariner will offer a second opportunity to improve the Hull eve more. Dialogue with her reveals that she desires to complete it as soon as possible, due to the doctor diagnosing her with an incurable illness. She sends the player character to the MS Azalea, to clear it of the occupying trappers. After killing the leader, Bilge, the player character returns, and accepts the caps, and the Mariner's respect. The next time Far Harbor is visited, two large sections of the Azalea's hull will have been attached to sections of the Hull.

Part 3
During Changing the Tide, the Mariner will offer one last chance to finalize the Hull's defenses, primarily against the corrosive acid of Mirelurk Queens. She sends the player character to collect three Mirelurk carapaces to coat the Hull with, making it acid-resistant. While any Mirelurk will do, a particularly rugged type can be found at Haddock Cove. Collecting the carapaces takes the player character back to the Mariner, whom thanks the player character, and rewards them with a Legendary harpoon gun, of varied effects.
