Just ck to see who it the one in your area. If they busy they just contract out any way.

I had Sea Tow when I was fishing the Renkin. Only had to use it once but it was worth it considering that I was off of Sandbridge and drifting towards the NC state line.

go to charlestonfishing.com and do a search, there are some good stories and recomendations, and some acts that would be considered piracy by most.
A lot of your choice depends on where you are located and who runs your towing service

Ray,... Rather than either I went ahead an bought a kicker. I've used it quite a few times. Even with a new main motor I'm gonna keep the kicker on board.

Whenever I go out I have a $100 bill on me in case I have to bribe someone to tow me in. *Never had to use it! 8)







Having an extra case of beer around isn't a bad idea either! ;D

Seatow cost $149 a year but if you're a AAA member you can get a 15% discount.

To say the least they have a limit. :-/


SeaTow will come 50 and if you are more than that here the captain will come farther or if too far for him he will have the CG get you to him. ;)

HOLDEN BEACH!!!!!!

Thats where I run out of. Bucanneer Hills.


I just got "towwing" on my boat insurance. $35 a year for up to $500.00 per tow, no deductible, no limit on number per year.

But I will have to pay up front and get reimbursed.

That way I can use whoever can get there first.

If you are leaving Holden on 130, bear left on Seashore Dr at the Citgo, about 2 miles on the left.
