This might be a place everyone can tell others about what is going on and give them some bad publicly. This site made the banks think twice about some of their charges.

We had an issue a few weeks ago. They dragged my boat through an oyster bed and ruined my blueprinted bottom. This is the second time they showed up drunk and high. And it was different guys! Could barely stand up. I changed to boat u.s.

WOW!

I was out with my buddy Jim not to long ago, and Sea Tow was called. They showed up promptly, were professional and courteous.

Yesterday at the FMO event, I had a minor engine problem, in an extremely narrow busy channel. Long story short I wound up on the sand bar, the wind and wave action pushed me quite a bit in. I called Sea Tow, and they arrived in about 30 minutes. After trying go get close from several directions, they had a plan, and then I was off in about 2 minutes. The guy was professional and courteous.

In about 30 years of boating, I have only been on the 'hook' (outside of the race course) these two times, and both we times, the vendor did a great job.

As I understood it the owner was still on board.
