Anybody out there have any experiences, positive or negative, with either one of these companies?
They were both at the LA Show and seem to be within $10 of eachother to join.
I do most of my boating at Havasu or Mohave. Hope I never have to use one, but might want to have the piece of mind, just like I don't want to use AAA but nice to know if I need them, they're there.

I have used bothe of them and I wound up going with vessel assist, I am not sure why I picked them but they ae the ones I bought my membership through. They are pretty good, unless they are busy, than it could be a wait. Hope to never use them again but it is cheap insurance. :D

I have used Sea Tow once last year and he was great. He towed me about 6 miles and the whole team he was trying to help me get the engine running with suggestions. Well worth the money.

The guy that owns Vessel Assist is a great guy. Damn I can't remember his name right now(Brian????. His folks own(ed) Blue Water rentals, he runs that too. Terrific people.
