Signing up is easy and can be completed in just a few minutes. We accept membership applications online or by phone at (800) 4SEATOW. When signing up, you'll be asked for the name, address and phone number of the person whose name appears on the boat registration(s), the year, make, length, color, name, registration or documentation number, and the hull and engine type of each vessel.
Additionally, we'll ask you for home port information regarding the primary vessel, specifically if the boat is trailered, kept at a marina, or docked at home. Following this, we'll ask you for the name of the boat ramp or marina you use most frequently, or the city and state where your home dock is located.

Although commonly referred to as such, a Sea Tow membership is not insurance. It's assurance. Just like a AAA membership affords you roadside assistance, Sea Tow is here to help with the day-to-day quirks of boating. We'll come to your aid when things go wrong – towing you home, delivering fuel, or pulling you off a sandbar so you can get back on your way. It's our job to help ensure your safety and we take that seriously.
While not required by law, boat insurance is intended to protect very significant investments – in a boat, electronics and gear, etc. – because disasters strike unexpectedly. Many boaters choose to skip the insurance, but it is a huge risk to be left without the means to repair or replace the boat you've worked so hard to acquire, let alone handle legal costs should you be faced with lawsuits after an accident.
Having boat insurance is as common sense as maintaining a Sea Tow membership – the two are intended to work together to ensure your boating needs are met in unexpected situations, however minor or major they may be.
