It was 5:30 in the morning, and Chad Rollins was on the treadmill. When the Search and Rescue alarm sounded, it surprised him. He'd only heard it once before at the US Coast Guard Station Sabine, in southeast Texas near the Louisiana border. He was a 25-year-old petty officer second class whose job was to fix diesel and gas engines on the boats, and handle maintenance and repairs. "I'm basically a mechanic," he says, adding that when the SAR alarm goes off, everybody jumps. "We know it's serious; we know somebody is in danger. Somebody needs the Coast Guard."

Appreciation for teak furniture is derived from knowledge about the material, maintenance and craftsmanship as well as a discerning taste for the timelessness incorporated into each piece. Learn why Westminster Teak furniture endures over time, season after season, year after year and long after trends are forgotten.

Unique is a word that is easily overused, but when it comes to the overall aesthetic of the Ferretti Yachts Infynito 80, it's an apropos descriptor.

This is especially true when taking in the yacht's forward section. Look closely. In lieu of the traditional open, sun-drenched foredeck, this motoryacht's superstructure stretches over it, all the way to the near-plumb bow, creating a semi-open deck that benefits from breezes, provides unobstructed vistas, and offers some protection from the elements. The space measures around 140 square feet and, according to Ferretti Yachts, can be set up with a dinette that has an extended table for alfresco meals. Or it can have a bar counter-owner's choice.

John Bayliss and his team of boatbuilders at Bayliss Boatworks in Wanchese, North Carolina, is accustomed to working with owners to create hand-crafted sport-fishing machines. That was certainly the case when Bayliss and his team took on their first walkaround build: the 60-foot Sequentis .

A walkaround design is similar to an express-boat layout, but it has deep alleys around the perimeter of the vessel. This setup gives anglers 360-degree access around the boat for fighting fish. And since Sequentis was designed for tournament live-bait sailfishing in South Florida, there's as much fishing to be done off the bow as there is from the more traditional cockpit.
