Just to make you aware but there is a risk with the CEO Mission where you are sent out to sea that the crates can be destroyed before collection.
I recently had one destroyed as it seemed my missile destroyed the craft before I got the text from the assistant to shoot the boats, so I would advise waiting for this before engaging.
Video for reference:
And here is my first Special Item, Rare Hide:

I've done a few of them, but never encountered that problem. I usually slow way down a keep just withing targeting range with the Buzzard, but I think I usually have sunk the supporting boats first. BTW the way, encountered a bug in pickup missions, where's I'd start the mission, but never got the notification that it started, and it took my money. Switched sessions, and it started working again. Congrats on the first special item. I kinda feel bad for all the skinned bigfoots out there, though.

Buy Special Cargo, hobo assasination, 2 crates:
I'm wondering if it is possible at all to do these assisination variants stealth without alerting the police.

I think the behavior might have changed where you can do the assissination missions by stealth. Here is the medical staff assissination done with a silenced sniper rifle:

Looks like the silencer makes a difference after all (for the assassinations). On a somewhat unrelated note, I noticed you own LS Marine 3. How do you enter it? I don't remember it having large doors... Also, do you recommend it?

Always wait for the right moment to strike when a third party takes off with your Special Cargo Delivery vehicle:

I've been getting Special Items every day in the past 4 days ... Fingers crossed for a 5th one tonight.
I sold the first 3 together for $355k.

Well I restarted CEO crate runs at the weekend and first few runs have gone well, was able to restock 2 crates at a time for a couple of my warehouses but it is going to take me a while to fill them up for all my business characters.
This project is my focus for the coming weeks, my aim is to build up the warehouses to full stock levels which will give me a substantial bank balance on hold that I can't touch in effect and can then use my trusted friends to help sell it should there be any substantial expensive purchases released in 2017 rather than having to fall back on another Shark card.

The only issue is that full warehouses are more likely to draw NPC attacks. I believe this only happens while CEO and not engaged in other CEO activity in free mode. My goal has been to try to fill my warehouses, and do single vehicle deliveries when they get full (1-9 crates at a time). It's pretty hard to reach this goal, since there is always some new vehicle that needs to be purchased. However, owning a MC business can drive you crazy, especially if you are obsessed with keeping it continuously supplied and selling before getting a multiple vehicle delivery - which can take up about half your session time if you don't have help.

A buy special cargo (2 crates) done solo, with the first guy taken out with my Buzzards blades and the crate caught in the air, and I returned before the second guy got to the ground.
