Towing & Salvage

The distinction between towing and salvage is crucial for boat owners to understand, especially in emergency situations. Towing typically involves the simple act of moving a vessel to a safe location, which is often covered by membership services. In contrast, salvage operations require specialized training, equipment, and sometimes heroic efforts to rescue a vessel from peril. The financial implications of these services can vary significantly, with salvage rewards often being a percentage of the vessel’s value, while towing costs are usually based on hourly rates. Boat owners should be aware of their coverage and the potential costs associated with towing versus salvage to make informed decisions during maritime emergencies.
