Boat towing by water port to port. Ken arrived right on time and could not have been nicer. Explained things in full detail, hooked me up and off we went. I was In my boat for the tow. Ken was very attentive and kept checking with a thumbs up to make sure all was going well. We kept in constant contact through the entire tow. Once arriving and the ramp he gently positioned me on the dock, made sure I was tied off and secure before leaving and asked if there was anything else he could do. Shook his had and he left. If for any reason I should need to use them again I would in a second. Mike the owner and Melissa the Lady who sets everything up was great to deal with. Only needed a two day notice and they were there. Kudos to them both and the way they run an operation. Have not seen this type of professionalism in a long time. They set a high bar to meet. Thank the three of you for making this a very easy project. Sincere regards, David Leibman 😀👍🏆

Fast, professional, and answered a thousand questions. After my boat sank at the dock due to heavy rain and a failed bilge pump they had it out of the water in a couple hours, pickled it and cleaned everything. They even opened up the claim with my insurance company and worked with both me and them to everything worked out. Best possible outcome for what otherwise was a pretty horrible experience.

We recently purchased a used pontoon boat. Last Sunday we were heading back to Gulf Cove from Cayo Costa and our boat spun the prop. Luckily, we had a membership with Sea Tow and we called them for assistance since we were stranded in Turtle Bay. Sea Tow promptly responded and were at our boat in 20 minutes (a storm was brewing and we were very nervous). Joe was the captain who towed us from the South end of Charlotte Harbor and Ken was the captain who towed us back to Gulf Cove—both excellent and very helpful. It is a relief to know that we can count on Sea Tow to come to our rescue.

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.
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.
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.
