Its going to end up in the trash with the rest of the debri if anything else. If the owner cared about it he would of already picked it up and claimed damages with his insurance. No I don't think its a chicken**** thing to do. I think that making personal insults on an online chat forum is a chicken**** thing to do. Whats the mater, you still pissed about the lewisville thread? Get over it........

Several guys got into another boat and went searching for the boat. Sea tow brought the boat the opposite direction of the crane, dragged it behind a small island to hide it. The were trying to claim salvage rights and seize the boat. After a long argument sea tow headed to the crane. They then demanded payment of $8000 and would not release the boat until it was paid. Apparently a small scuffle broke out and than the owner of the boat handed over his Amex to get his boat back. The boat ended up sitting in the water over 5 hours longer than needed.
This is the same crap they did to How Sweet it is, a few years ago in Fort Lauderdale.
My question is, if it's a permitted race, where seaTow is contracted How can they claim salvage?! I think these guys are crooks and we should all boycott them and use on Boat US. I think taking advantage of racers at a time like this is disgusting! I hope the owner disputes his Credit card!

You Guys should take a Look at a tow boat company called BOAT-AID , They are Orange, They Operate out of the Miami Beach Marina, Great group of guys that I have used for Towing, and Maintainence, Its a great group of excoasties, they are honest, upfront, and through my business dealings with them, I now consider them friends. If you want to try them out, contact STEVE HUBBARD, 786-338-8042. Like I said, I consider them friends, and any help the OSO family can give them in building their business would be appreciated. Tell them your a friend of mine, (Kevin) and you'll be well taken care of.

I remember reading recently that I think it was Sea Tow that went out to a boat w/mechanical issues in the West Palm area.The tow boat operator was drunk as a monkey and towed the disabled boat in circles until they ran out of gas! Owners of the broke down boat got it running and towed the tow boat to shore!
Don't think that story saw air after the initial report
I had Boat US before and had great luck with them and getting reading to sign on again. I also like that they (Boat US) spend a ton of money fighting for our rights as well.
