If you have no tow coverage, insured with other companies besides Geico, or reach limits with other companies "unlimited" plans, give us a shout. I have their price lists from when I was associated and it made my jaw drop.

We are the more affordable, safer option. All our tow lines are washed and stored per manufacturers recommendations. We do not leave them out in the sun or unrinsed to degrade. This makes for an accident and injury for Captain or customer waiting to happen. We inspect our tow lines before each trip. This is not covered anywhere in the Tow courses. The reason we know is because all our Capts are retired firefighters, and certified Heavy and Tactical Rescue, with Rope Rescue. So why not treat your tow lines like someone's life depends on it? Because it does.

We have always used a paid mate/deckhand when possible. Its just makes an operation go smoother, lessens risk for injury rushing, and is just generally more safe. I want to thank all my present and past mates for all their help!

Generally there are distance limits to your tow coverage. Check with your insurance, membership provider. When you go over these limits, thats when they really r**e you. That is one of our niches... long tows.... Along with finding a great vessel for a deal, it being inoperable, but you need to get it from purchase site to new distinction. Not covered in towing plans due to pre-existing problem. Buying tow coverage same day as a problem? Wo t come help... pre-existing problem. We're here, we're fair, and we care.
We also do battery jumps, fuel deliveries, ungroundings with aerial mapping support for finding cuts in sandbars. Wel also provide solutions for vessels that have sunk.
