Our Fleet of Rescue Boats

The Safe/Sea fleet of five rescue towboats has been custom designed and built to our exacting standards to provide the boating public with the quickest, safest, and most effective assistance services possible.

All of our vessels are independently inspected and certified through the Accredited for Commercial Assistance and Professional Towing (ACAPT) program, which is administered by C-Port, the National Trade Association for the Marine Assistance Industry.
