A membership that would have taken him to his vehicle some 30 miles from here would have cost less, some $175.50 less than his tow bill. We had 1.5 hrs in this run.
In addition he has now has to deal with taxis, and ferry schedules.
It really pays to belong.

Richard,
I've been looking through the From the Pilothouse blog and noticed that they often tow at planing speeds. Why do they do this? It seems that if they got paid by the hour, there would be no financial incentive to speed things up. And it would increase the chance for problems.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Sam
Hi Sam,
I believe their pricing is by the mile, not by the hour.
Depends on the type of equipment an operator uses and the average type of vessel being towed.
It would be interesting to see a cost analysis.
