My motor died on me today trying to get my family out of the water before the storm got bad. I was helped out by someone from sea tow who luckily was close enough for me to whistle for when my motor shut off. I am beyond grateful for his help. I will 100 percent be purchasing a membership once i get my motor back up and running.

Captain Neal's service went above and beyond to help a fellow boater. Three years of Sea Tow and first time calling for assistance, I used the phone app to call for tow(3 miles offshore,) worked seamlessly. Captain Neal arrived and did a quick assessment, towed into calmer waters and started troubleshooting/repairing fuel line issue. We were able to get repaired and running again with Captain Neal's experience and expertise. I was able to successfully boat home safely. Thank you Sea Tow for all involved did a great job, it is great to know I have you on my side while boating! Highly recommend Sea Tow for any boaters!

Captain Neal and his crew were very professional and courteous. They went the extra mile to help me diagnose my engine problem and actually figured out a way to get it started without me needing a tow! They went above and beyond the call of duty and I greatly appreciate their outstanding dedication and service to my needs!

5 yr member and had to use Sea Tow for the first time today. Very seamless situation. Dispatcher was very nice and helpful with information. Capt. Neal arrived not too long after making the call. We tried a quick repair of a busted radiator hose with tools and tape he had onboard, but due to the limited space in the engine compartment, we couldn't get the hole sealed good enough and we didn't want to risk the hose busting completely, so we went for the tow. Very thorough instructions and a safe, quick tow back to the dock. Capt. Neal even got us back before a big storm blew in! Being a member definitely paid for itself, as this would have been a $450 tow bill without it. I definitely recommend the service, thanks Neal!

Questions & Answers

Do I need a separate tow service from my boat insurance?

YES. This is a BIG misconception out there. Sea Tow is NEVER included with your boat insurance policy. And a Sea Tow membership will ALWAYS be more comprehensive than towing coverage through your insurance carrier. We like to point out... that without a yellow membership card and/or a yellow sticker on your boat... you DO NOT have a Sea Tow membership and therefore do not have priority service and the rest of the privileges that come with membership. If you choose to take a chance and stick with only the coverage provided by your boat insurance policy, you can still call Sea Tow for assistance on the water. As a non-member you will pay for service by the hour. Industry-wide the average cost of on-water assistance is $850 - $1,000 per incident. Also realize that Sea Tow members get priority service, as a non-member you will likely wait for service.

Is towing included with traditional boat insurance?

We always encourage boaters to investigate and ask questions to get a full understanding of if there is any coverage with their boat insurance policy before they head out on the water, and if so, what services and dollar amounts are covered. - Who's coming to help you (and when)? - Does your insurance company rely on a third party to provide the towing? - Is there a distance or dollar limit on coverage? - Is there a deductible? - Will you only get service to the nearest safe port instead of where you want to go? - Will claims impact policy premiums? If the answer is yes, to any of these, a Sea Tow membership is a no-brainer for the low cost and high level of coverage.

What are the benefits of having a tow membership above and beyond that of my boat insurance policy?

A membership to Sea Tow is a membership to first-class on-water support (with free towing included) without the hassles or expenses of filing insurance claims or not knowing who exactly is going to come to help you on the water. - Does your insurance company manage towing claims the same as other claims? - Will your towing claim impact future policy premiums? - Will you need to be reimbursed for services performed? - Are all the services you might need covered? - Does your boat insurance company have a dedicated fleet of boats and captains standing by 24/7? A membership to Sea Tow is simple. It's one annual cost ($199/yr for Gold Card, $119/yr for Lake Card) with no claims to file or unexpected out-of-pocket costs. What a towing membership, is above and beyond boat insurance, is very similar to the benefits of having a service like AAA in addition to the roadside assistance coverage through your car insurance. It's premium level support that goes above and beyond what towing coverage under an insurance policy looks like. Sea Tow is Your Road Service at Sea®, with priority service for Sea Tow members.
