Default Will TowBoatUS cancel me for frequent use??

I have had some intermittent ignition issues with boat and had to use them twice recently for local tows back to ramp (have been a unlimited TowBoatUS member for years now). I am starting to worrying that they might cancel me since I have utilized them twice in like a month and it has been my experience that most insurance companies are pretty effective at collecting money and not so happy with paying out $$. Anyone here a Tower or have any insight as to if I need to be worried? Obviously I am trying my best to get problems ironed out and boat reliable and hope to not use them again.

I heard if it is for the same issue then they will start charging.

Call Sea-Tow. They'll claim salvage rights on your boat and your ignition problems will be solved.

Just get your wife and kids memberships and call on a rotation... It should cover you for a while...

HA, thanks that is great idea, never thought of SeaTow. I am so sick of this boat anyhow and itchin' for an golden excuse to buy another one .

Not like they they ever check, maybe if it breaks again in the near future I will have another type a failure (besides ignition).
I am going to sea trail it tonight and a buddy is going to fish in same general area in case my POS breaks he can tow me back to ramp.
