I raise this question on the offshore forum because I'm looking for feedback on who to go with when the going gets rough and I"m 50 miles from nowhere. I've used BoatUS for the last five - six years but last year and this year I,m heading far off. Will SEATOW really come to the canyons for fuel or towing for a measly 95$ per year unlimited. My premier coverage from BOATUS was the same towing, fuel ungroundings but limited to 25 offshore. Any ideas ?

I started this post so I Guess I'll end it. TOWBOAT/US is 25 miles max thats it end of story. SEATOW is vague about what they cover. I spoke with Capt. Les Trafford of SEATOW SHINE****/MORICHES and asked about canyon tows and was told that up until this year the C.G. would go out and bring you to the 25 mile line and he would meet you there . This year hopefully July/ Aug will have a 44 footer in the fleet and will do Canyon tows. This still doesn't answer the point blank question how far will SEATOW go offshore in general and for other franchises and what exactly is unlimited towing. But I have heard that Capt. Les is a honorable guy and there for you in the pinch so I switched over to SEATOW
