TOWBOATUS MEMBER
VS NON-MEMBERS

Non-members in need of a tow are typically charged based on an hourly fee from the time the Baltimore Marine Recovery (BMR) captain departs home port until the BMR captain returns to home port.

Rates may vary depending on season, time of day and current weather and sea conditions. A typical sunny day, 2 hour round trip will cost more than $600. If you find yourself bumped onto a sandbar, non-members are charged an additional $20.00 per foot of the vessels length to be pulled free. BMR accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.

If you are lucky enough to be an Unlimited or Unlimited Gold TowBoatUS member, you simply sign the service invoice and all charges, except for the per gallon charge for fuel delivered, are paid by BoatUS.
