Sea Tow Launched Fully Redesigned Mobile App for Boaters
Sea Tow Services International Inc. launched a fully redesigned mobile application, delivering a seamless and highly responsive experience for both members and non-members alike. Built to improve efficiency and communication on and off the water, the upgraded platform offered an intuitive interface alongside essential daily tools, including real-time marine forecasts by zone, interactive tide charts, wind conditions, radar, and immediate alerts for severe weather.
The defining capability of the new platform was its streamlined assistance request feature, which provided the fastest and most accurate way to call for on-water help using automatic GPS sharing. “This is Sea Tow’s most robust app to date. It’s all things boating, in one finely crafted app,” noted Shaun Knoll, Sea Tow’s VP of Technology. He emphasized that the automatic location sharing reduced many uncertainties when boaters called for assistance, ultimately turning the app into a reliable daily companion for the water.
Beyond its emergency and weather tools, the application allowed users to seamlessly manage their memberships and explore exclusive video and blog content. Available as a free download on iOS via the Apple Store and on Android via Google Play, the release further reinforced the 40-year legacy of the premier marine assistance provider. Originally founded by Captain Joseph Frohnhoefer in Southold, New York, Sea Tow continues to connect boaters with Coast Guard-licensed captains for 24/7 on-water needs, salvage operations, and environmental hazard responses.
