March 13, 2020
It’s said that: We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing. Capt. Pike takes those words to heart.

This family-friendly boat may be small, but she packs quite a wallop.
Capt. Bill Pike is tasked with the impossible: bringing a 200-foot supply vessel from Trinidad to Louisiana without refueling.
Take a spin on Jacksonville’s St. Johns River over the next few weeks and you’re likely to see Cindy Purcell, owner of Huckins Yacht Corporation, sea trialing her latest and greatest: the classically styled, futuristically engineered hybrid-electric 38 Sportsman.
The walls close in on Capt. Bill as he impatiently awaits his vessel’s return to the brine.
The largest Grand Banks yacht ever built, the 85 is poised to become one of the most efficient cruisers ever to tackle the open ocean.
Capt. Bill Pike puts Cox’s CXO300 diesel outboards through the ringer to see how they stack up compared to gas outboards. The results surprised even him.
When it comes to giving out boat-buying advice, the answer is clear for Capt. Bill Pike: Don’t. It never ends well.
Two custom builders collaborate on an express-style, outboard-powered sportfish
With a tough, pugnacious profile and outdoorsy features, this “SUV of the Seas” is bound to maximize time spent on the water.
Capt. Bill Pike concedes that boating is at bottom a risky business: There’s simply no way you can be prepared for everything.
This little DIY project will help you descale air-conditioning units or engines and save you a whole pile of money.
Meet a dayboat you can actually spend the night on in air-conditioned comfort, no generator required.
Whether you’re fishing the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico or planning a weekend’s worth of water sports, the Regulator 26XO has you covered.
Idle hands are the devil’s playthings for the project-minded Capt. Bill.
