I signed up with Sea Tow a couple months ago...Thakfully I haven't had to use their services so far ! I talked to Captain Joel Singletary a couple times and he's a super nice individual...All I've heard are good things about him.. See him around St Marks pretty regularly....

I signed with SEA TOW based on good recommendations.
Thankfully, I've not had to call them.

SEA TOW!!! without a doubt!!! Capy. Joel is the man, thankfully I havent had to use it but I had a buddy that did and he could have had a very bad experience if it werent for Capt Joel and his very fast response time. Sea Tow is the only way to go.

This is the same Joel who used to run Keaton Beach Marina with his wife and family. In that role there were bound to be mixed reviews, but I always found him and any members of his family to be great people with fantastic customer service. I've heard a few people say otherwise, but only a very few. I would trust Joel with my life ... which is sorta kinda what you are doing when you go with Sea Tow, eh?

Just joined Sea Tow. First time being a member of a towing program.

Seatrout99 is running the Panacea boat on the weekends.

Can someone tell me where can I sign up for Sea Tow? I've been thinking about joining but am too lazy to go through the process. Does it take effect immediately once you hand them the check?

Sea Tow it is, thanks all!

Chris, if you have insurance on your boat, there's a good chance your policy comes with vessel towing reibursement. I know mine did with Progressive.
Might want to check it out

I've used sea tow. Joel took his time and did a great job getting me in. He and his family are great people.
