I know you will always have folks upset w the circumstances but for the most part I’m sure people are always glad to see you roll up.. Hope I never need yall but damn glad your there

[@CaptainCutip]

It is a strange dynamic for sure. We have people who are inadvertently rude to us because they are upset with the situation. Typically those that are upset or rude to us are apologetic by the end of the tow. Tow Boat U.S. is standing by 24/7/365 if you do find yourself in need of assistance.

@@CaptainCutip I figured that would be the case, I’m sure like anything else it gets old but damn nice way to make a living.. be safe out there brother.. love the vids

Did you hit your head? I saw a video there’s a kind of hook for clipping a line on and off the bow eye so you don’t need to reach down there.

[@CaptainCutip]

I didn’t. It looked like I did though. We have used those types of hooks in the past. They just don’t last for us. We bend or break them fairly quickly. The clips we use are the only thing we have found that will not break under the stress we induce on them. The clips we use do come at the cost of having to get closer to the release rope, but from a safety aspect, having a clip that won’t break during an ungrounding or a tow is far more important in my opinion than taking an extra second to get closer to release the clip.

What was the bill for that service?
