Default commerical towing vs insurance

my boat insurance covers towing. is it worth it to get towboat or
seatow in addition? not sure who the insurance company uses (agent I
talked to on the phone didn't know).

any experiences?



If you are a member of BOAT/US, membership includes on the water towing
for a limited distance, or at least used to...The full towing package,
about $100 a year, is more than worth it the first time your engine
craps out and you can't get it started. A tow of a modest distance from
where you are to where your ramp/marina is can easily add up to $400 or
more...
