Service Details
Our fleet of four customized, fully-equipped Sea Tow boats are strategically positioned at marinas and/or home docks just above Bridgewater Marina, in Becky's Creek at Bayside Marina, around R-25 in Craddock Creek, at Crazy Horse Marina, in Gills Creek, or up the Blackwater River with location depending on which Captain is on call, enabling us to achieve an average response time of under an hour. Our crew of Coast Guard-Licensed Captains have years of on-water experience and have been part of the Sea Tow team for at least five years. When not assisting Sea Tow members and other boaters, we often patrol areas near Bridgewater, the State Park, Bernards Landing, the dam, and the cliffs so we can respond quickly no matter the time of day. We are here to help.
Unmatched Level of Service with Membership
Your boat towing membership is just the beginning. Sea Tow offers the most comprehensive member benefits available at one annual rate and no fine print.
-
Priority Service
On-water service is what we do, in fact, it’s all we do. Having so many boats on the water means a local Sea Tow Captain is usually right nearby and able to get you fast. On average, in less than an hour.
-
Premier Boat Towing Fleet
Boat towing, fuel delivery, jump-starts, ungroundings; our fleet of Sea Tow boats and equipment are to-of-the-line and built to respond.
-
Locally Owned and Operated
Membership dollars stay local, in your community. Local Sea Tow franchises don’t get paid by the tow or by the hour, like our competition. Sea Tow franchises are paid when you become a member (and stay a member). It’s our job to keep you happy, which means taking care of you as quickly and efficiently as possible to keep you boating.
-
Ask Sea Tow
Local navigation assistance, tides and weather, anchorages, mishap prevention tips, and on-water know-how; Sea Tow Captains are your resource on and off your boat.
-
Nationwide Coverage
500+ ports nationwide, Sea Tow has you covered. No mileage caps on towing, and $5,000 out-of-all-areas reimbursement. When we say we are the “leader” in on-water assistance, we mean it.
-
No Distance, No Dollar Limits, No Out-of-Pocket
Sea Tow Members are always served first. No waiting in line, no out-of-pocket expenses, no claims to submit to your insurance company and no distance or dollar limits in your home port area. *
Marine Support Capabilities
You’ve got a job to do, and we can help. Sea Tow maintains a fleet of hundreds of vessels and specialized equipment to offer a wide array of commercial and B2B services. One-day or long-term contracts, our Coast Guard-Licensed Captains are ready to take on any challenge 24/7.
-
Non-Member Fee-For-Service
The average daytime hourly rate for a boat towing company is $300. That cost can go up at night, in bad weather, etc. Don’t get stuck paying (on average) $850 for a short tow or over $2,000 for longer tows. Sea Tow membership covers these expenses with priority service included.
