Detailed walkthrough
Speak with Father about The Institute, he'll request help dealing with a renegade synth turned raider at Libertalia. There will be a Courser companion at Nahant Wharf that needs to be collected first. Once the Courser is collected fight along the network of ships until the target is reached. On entering the cabin X6-88 will initiate conversation and provide Gabriel's recall code.

On reaching the top of the ship Gabriel will initiate conversation, no matter what a fight will break out, but there's a couple of persuasion checks that give extra choices like the password for the Master locked terminal that can open a nearby safe. Once the fight is over X6-88 will teleport out with Gabriel.

On returning to the Institute there will be another discussion with Father, he'll provide quarters upon entering them the mission is complete and The Battle of Bunker Hill begins.
