TowBoatUS has the largest network of towing ports.
When making your decision, keep in mind that…
Commercial towing companies operate on a “Portal-to-Portal” basis, meaning they charge from the moment they depart their port to the time they return. These charges can exceed $275 per hour on average. The critical factor is the distance from the towing company’s homeport, not your own. Therefore, even if you’re boating near your port, if the towing service is 10 miles away, the costs may be higher than anticipated.
For Soft-Ungrounding services, there’s an additional per-foot charge on top of the hourly rate for freeing your vessel. However, your Unlimited Freshwater membership covers this cost, provided that no special equipment or additional towboats are required to refloat your boat.
