Sea Tow? I'd do 180 of what that apps says to do..

I wouldn't put it past them to try to beach people with false tide reports to get some tows they can turn in to salvages.

From the website: "automatically sends a distress signal to SeaTow Headquarters when you leave the dock", but wait, there's more... "To activate the SeaTow app, use your phones camera to capture image of Visa,Mastercard or American Express card, then attach image and text "Rape Me" to 1-(800) SEA-TOWW

OSO may have been infiltrated by covert Sea-Tow operatives looking to improve their image. Everyone be aware. . .

Lesson to everyone, stay withyour boat and be involved. If either of these clownish organizations are used, have your video or still camera ready. Witnesses are good too.

Yeah you all might be right never had a run in with sea tow. I thought the weather, tide data, and speed function might be cool.
