We found ourselves in a little pickle yesterday with a rental boat and I’m so grateful for these guys! They were professional, prompt and so friendly. We clearly were inexperienced and they didn’t make us feel stupid but instead made us feel very safe.
I can’t say enough great things. THE best.
We lost reverse on our sailboat in the Gulf while traveling to PCB. After calling SeaTow once we entered Saint Andrew Bay, Brandon quickly responded and helped us navigate the Hathaway Bridge (we are 64ft tall) as well as the narrow and shallow channel to the marina. He also positioned us perfectly dockside. Brandon’s patience and friendliness was much appreciated after a long few days and nights at sea!
I already couldn't say enough great things about Sea Tow. The peace of mind, the safety tips, the value of their service is in measurable and when you are on the water you will know why. But then I actually needed them and met the service from Panama City Beach. Very impressive. I can't thank them enough. They were quick, professional, and I knew I was in good hands when the operator said "We'll figure it out" Thank you all!
Brandon and Todd came and hauled my capsized 1989 four wins freedom 170 lake boat from the gulf side of shell island. They were there in 30 mins flat and saved my old girl bilging her out and hauling her to st Andrew’s ramp helped me load her and all a long shot recovery and successful save . You know boat means bust out another thousand and thankfully they were able to work with that because my budget didn’t include thousands for boat towing my boat that’s only worth that to me because the time I put in her. God bless your business and families. Thank yall!
I have been a member for years, some of the best insurance to have on the water. I have had to be towed 3 times and have had a great experience with sea tow each time. I will continue to renew my membership as long as i am able to enjoy boating.
Captain George is a life saver! He reached our boat within 10 minutes of me calling our insurance company. He was so personable too. He talked to the kids and made sure they knew everything was ok. He was amazing!
Captain Brandon saves the day! We lost power at Crooked Island and tried multiple times to reset electrical and release possible vapor lock. Brandon came within an hour, diagnosed and fixed our issue, pumped in enough gas to get us back to Mexico Beach ramp, and followed up to make sure we made it back safely. Awesome!
Couldn’t figure out why our brand new pontoon wouldn’t start. Tried everything. They get there and tow us back which takes forever but beforehand I asked do you have any suggestions as to why it’s suddenly not starting. Nope. Nothing. Get back to the dock and we discuss further what could it be. I ask for gas even though it says there is 1/4 tank. That’s extra but I’m willing to see. Sure enough it turns out according to their guy gas gauges are inaccurate and we should’ve asked for gas before he towed us. So we paid an additional fee ($25 for 5 gallons) to find out that yep we wasted $700 on being towed because we were out of gas. Note to future self. Towing is only worth it if you actually have a problem that you can diagnose! Thanks for taking two veterans money. Really appreciate being screwed by over by a non-veteran friendly or just new boat people place! And no lie. They ask for a tip.
Starter went out on boat 26 miles offshore from Panama City. Called Seatow and within 1 hour Capt Brandon was at our boat on a busy Saturday. Very safe and efficient service from a skilled boat Captain. Seatow made breaking down a much easier situation. Based on this experience I highly recommend SeaTow Panama City Fl.
This was the first time I actually seen this crew in action but I do know there was a sunken sailboat and within an hour 45min it was up and afloat again very impressing!!
I wish there were a '6' rating. This outfit is like a weapon...great never to need one, but priceless to have when you do. I had their coverage in the Panama City area for several years, used it once in a dire situation and was overwhelmed with their expediency, expertise and courtesy. The following year I was duped over to BoatUS Tow by an incredibly low price offer. The one time I used them was almost disastrous ... they left me aground for hours in a busy intersect with dangerous traffic until finally a passing tug that heard my radio calls threw us a line and home we went. I advised BoatUS corporation and they could care less. I renewed with Sea Tow even before my so-called coverage with BoatUS expired. Stick with the good guys.
READ THIS BEFORE YOU RISK NOT HAVING SEA TOW BACKING YOU!
I was not a Sea Tow Member...(past tense now)
To keep this short enough to keep everyones attention makes it impossible to explain every detail, so I'll be brief.(as possible)
Sunday engine failure and inexperience in that situation ended with my boat being beached on the gulf side of Shell Island for three days.
Rough seas made any attempt at rescue impossible....but it DID NOT prevent Capt Brandon and diver Brandon, with Panama City Sea Stow, from making an impact on me that is rare in this day and time.
Against these guys urgent requests to leave the scene and tend to my physical and mental despair....I chose to stay with my boat for three days on the island to defend it from the pathetic groups of people that feed on taking what little is left from someone that has already lost a monumental amount.
The events from Sunday morning to late Tuesday (when mother nature made the first chance of rescue possible) would even make people WITHOUT A boat want these guys behind them.
The professionalism, courtesy, risk, sympathy, and out right human kindness these guys displayed is absolutely a rarity!
Day after day, time after time, they showed up to make every attempt to help and check on me. They were as emotionally connected to the sutuation as I was....or very close at the least....but despite their eager desire to help, mother nature is far stronger.
For three days these guys held my hand, became family, and jumped on the first tiny window to get my boat free.
The worst part is I'll never be able to fully thank these gentleman for all they did for me. But I can and will, tell everyone of their compassion and borderline idiotic bravery.
No one, including you that's reading this post, will ever fully understand unless you are put in this position, and I HIGHLY suggest you pass on that...but DO NOT risk NOT having these type of people in your corner!!!
From the deepest part of my appreciation and admiration,
Thank you PANAMA CITY SEA TOW, CAPT BRANDON AND DIVER BRANDON, I and my family are in awe of people like yourselves!!

Unfortunately our steering system went out and we had to call SeaTow at 4:00 a.m. We were 5 miles out. Sea Tow showed up so quickly and was so professional and patient. I wish I knew the captain’s name because he really deserves some praise! He delivered us safe and sound to our boat ramp. He was certainly the hero of the day. Thank you so much!
Great service, fast service and I mean FAST! We were out at Crooked Island off of Tyndall when our battery died after leaving the radio on. We called them to come jump us off while we fished and as soon as I hung up the phone I was notified they were en route. We fished for maybe 20 minutes and saw that yellow boat on the horizon. He jumped off the boat followed us out and parted ways. This is why Sea Tow will always get my business because of the group in the PC and Port St Joe area. Thanks again y'all.
