Phillip Goodman

901-288-6884

Hello, my name is Phillip Goodman.  Born in Augusta Ga moved to Memphis Tn when I was 7.  It was then that my family started going to Pickwick to my Grandmother’s cabin.  I bought my first boat in 2007 as I needed a way to entertain my 4 children.   I’ve been boating ever since.  I retired from a 16-year career selling heavy duty Freightliner trucks.  I met the woman of my dreams and made her my wife in 2020.   Becky is also a longtime boater.   We have made a great life together spending most of our time on our houseboat with family and friends.
I have grown to love boats and boating more than ever in the past few years.  I’ve always loved meeting new people.   I’ve learned in my past career that honesty and treating people the way you want to be treated always leads to success.   I plan to bring that attitude to Pickwick Yacht Brokers.

Greg Dixon

812-325-8785

Hello, my name is Greg Dixon and I recently joined Pickwick Yacht Brokers in April of 2023.  My wife and our oldest special needs son reside in South Pittsburg, TN and our boat is located at Goose Pond in Scottsboro, AL.  I am a graduate of Yacht Brokers Institute and a member of America’s Great Loop Cruisers Association (AGLCA).  We enjoy boating and we look forward to cruising the Great Loop in the near future as well as other areas around the US.
My boating life began when I was three years old and Dad bought our first boat, a 16’ Tri-Hull Winner with a 100 HP Johnson Outboard on it.  From that point on I never looked back, and boating has been a part of our family’s life ever since.  Kara and I have raised our two boys (Matt and Jake) on the water, and our youngest, Jake, has continued his love for the water by enlisting in the United States Coast Guard.  We have owned a variety of runabouts, ski boats, houseboats, and currently we own a Carver 570 Voyager Pilothouse “Someday Came”.
In 2019 I retired from the automotive manufacturing industry after 31 years where I held a variety of positions in Engineering, Maintenance, Production, and Project Management.  I have a BS from Purdue University of Indianapolis and an MBA from Indiana Wesleyan University.
I believe integrity, hard work, and open honest communication are paramount to any business deal and I will work diligently to help you find your dream boat or to help you sell your current vessel.  Give me a call and let me put my experience and passion for boating to work for you.
You can reach me anytime via email at Greg@pickwickyacht.com or call/text me at 812-325-8785.
Thanks, and I look forward to working with you soon.
