Boat USA?

[Pipe_Dream]

Do you mean BoatUS? I have been a member since 1994. Dues $19, basic towing ($150 per incident) $18. $150 won't get you very far if you do have to be towed, so you can get unlimited towing for $120. Receive a small glossy magazine every month, sometimes with good tips and reports. I also insure my boat through them -- they're competitive, and they offer stated-value policies. Other benefits (that I use) include fuel discounts at member marinas, and they partner with West Marine so every time I buy anything there I show them my BoatUS card, and eventually I get coupons redeemable for purchases there. When I was doing my refit and going to West Marine every week, they added up and I got some significant coupons.

For me it's been a good deal. 8)
