Boating Safety Tips with Sea Tow

I participated in an Influencer Activation Program on behalf of  Mom Central Consulting for Sea Tow. I received a promotional item to thank me for participating.

Happy 4th of July! The water ways are sure to be packed with boat enthusiasts ready to watch the beautiful firework shows around the country. The problem with this is that the waterways become very dangerous because of overcrowding and accidents do happen. Whether you run out of fuel, need a tow, or your battery goes out Sea Tow is the trusted aid that many boaters rely on. Sea Tow is like AAA for the waterway. This company provides boaters with the peace of mind that if anything happens day or night Sea Tow will be there to assist. “As a Sea Tow member you receive free towing, fuel drops, jump starts, priority service, Automated Radio Checks, 24/7 nationwide coverage, knowledgeable Captains, covered ungroundings, savings and more!”

Sea Tow is so passionate about water safety that it has its own foundation dedicated to promoting good boating habits like taking a boat safety course, wearing a life jacket, and having a sober skipper. Sea Tow even provides loaner life jackets in select marinas to make sure that people are boating with safety in mind. In fact, “the Sea Tow Foundation has distributed close to 15,000 life jackets nationwide to help make recreational boaters safer on the water with Life Jacket Loaner Stand located Nationwide.”

Enjoy taking the family boating? Sea Tow’s website provides boating safety tips in the Captains Classroom, like this infographic below:

Personally I know that the sea can be a scary place especially living in Florida. Recently on the news there was a couple whose boat tipped over and they were not wearing life jackets and had to wade in the water for 14 hours until local fisherman finally rescued them from the ocean. How scary would that be? Well, Sea Tow has experienced captains that know the water ways and can come help when you need it the most. They educate the public about water safety tips and provide needed assistance for a low fee of just 46 cents a day. Peace of mind for a very low price!

Don’t forget snacks while on the water. Sea Tow even provides a few kid-approved snacks to have on board.
