The '''S.S. Drake''', simply referred to from the Koppaites as the '''Drake''', is the main ship in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It was built by and named after Alph's grandfather. Much like the other ships from the ''Pikmin'' series, it serves as the main storage unit for all the gathered objects found by the leaders. Its other purpose is to transport the leaders from place to place. [[Charlie]] is its captain and [[Alph]] is its engineer.

The S.S. Drake is not designed like a traditional rocket along the lines of the [[S.S.

It also appears to be far more advanced than either of them, as the vehicle contains a small satellite that is used for surveying purposes, and instead of sitting on fins on the ground, the vehicle features four extending landing struts on which it sits on the ground, plus a set of other minor details. Several pieces of Koppaite text are written on the outside of the Drake.

Appearance in Pikmin 3.

The S.S. Drake, simply referred to by the Koppaites as the Drake, is a ship designed by and named after Alph's grandfather. Used by Alph, Brittany, and Charlie, the S.S. Drake serves as their base, transports them between places, and stores all the gathered objects found by them. Charlie is its captain and Alph is its engineer. Uniquely, the S.S. Drake is not designed like a traditional rocket, instead more closely resembling a lander vehicle, particularly with its much rounder and stouter body providing a living space and the four extending landing struts it rests on while on the ground. One of the most valuable components of the S.S. Drake is its cosmic-drive key, which is necessary for the spacecraft to achieve warp speed and travel between distant celestial bodies.

The S.S. Drake has a minor appearance in the opening cutscene of Pikmin: Wide World, and is never seen after that. It is used by Alph, Brittany, and Captain Charlie to return Captain Olimar and Louie to Hocotate before they themselves return to Koppai to resolve the famine plaguing their planet.
