Default Towing insurance cancelled?

This is probably a very dumb question but ::::

Is it required that one own a boat to sign up for the Tow Boat USA
insurance?

I know of one instance where a man had four very long tows in the first
two months of his contract. They cancelled him. I understand why.



I have heard one or two completely unsubstantiated stories about
people who have been refused for contract renewals due to what the
company considered "abuse" of the service. In other words, idiots who
needed towing or other assistance on a regular basis due to their own
incompetence. Are you expecting to find people who were turned down
for absolutely no reason? I've never heard of that, and I can't
imagine why it would happen.

A Towboat/US associate mentioned refusal to renew contracts, so I can
slightly substantiate the rumor, but I forget the specifics of the
story. I believe he was talking about the other towing outfit in our
area, though.
