For the multiplayer mission in Grand Theft Auto IV, see Bomb Da Base II.
Bomb Da Base: Act II is a mission in Grand Theft Auto III given to protagonist Claude by explosives expert 8-Ball from his shop in Harwood, Portland, Liberty City.
Description
8-Ball, knowing about the meeting after a phone call from Salvatore Leone, tells Claude that he needs $100,000 for the explosives and tells Claude to return when he has the money. After obtaining the necessary money, Claude returns to 8-Ball's and the two head to Portland Harbor. 8-Ball gives Claude a sniper rifle since his hands are still too badly injured to use a weapon himself. After arriving at Portland Harbor, Claude gets a good vantage point and begins to kill the Colombian Cartel gang members guarding the Les Cargo container ship, with 8-Ball planting the explosives. He detonates the explosives, getting off the ship's bridge just before it sinks.
Reward
The reward for completing this mission is $150,000 and the mission Last Requests is unlocked.

Trivia
- The container ship used by the Colombian Cartel shares the same textures as a ship in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, docked in Viceport.
- If the player is on the ship when it explodes then the player will not die, instead, they will reappear back on land, but the Cartel Cruisers are gone.
- The player will still get the cutscene that shows 8-Ball telling Claude that he needs $100,000 even if they already have the money.
- A ship very similar to the one destroyed in this mission can be seen in GTA IV, as a deteriorated wreck located off the west coast of Acter Industrial Park.
- The mission is somewhat similar to the Freighter Approach of The Merryweather Heist in Grand Theft Auto V, wherein the protagonist (Claude/Franklin) uses a sniper rifle to give assistance and eliminate enemies in order for another character (8-Ball/Michael) to plant bomb(s) and sink a cargo ship.
- This is the only time the Cartel Cruiser appears in Portland (excluding Firefighter and Vigilante missions.)
