Sign n glid

[Father's Day]

Hello Brothers, I just switched over to progressive insurance for my boat and they have sign and glide don't know if I should still get Boat US. Has anyone use sign and glide in New Jersey? Boat US is based out of my Marina

I don't live in Jersey, but have used it once for a 1.5 mile tow. No issues. I have not ever heard of a complaint on this forum or THT.
I would think progressive has agreements with the big towing companies.

a Boat US membership is separate from the insurance. you can still get the membership for towing and WM & other discounts.

Yes I'm aware, but thinking if they are going to call Boat US anyway don't need it. I always had Boat US included with GEICO but they raised me every year till I had enough.

I am in NJ out of Waretown, have sign/glide, needed to use it once inside Barnegat Bay. Worked fine, they were very attentive on the phone and followed up after, actually a very personalized service. The representative asked me a few questions that demonstrated they actually knew something about boating and ensured that I was safe. They hooked me up with BoatUS for the actual service. The only issue I see is you can’t contact them directly via VHF. So if off the beach out of cell range there is an extra step involved - but the instructions are clear. If you call a service directly (BoatUS, SeaTow, etc) they will not cover the full bill, you must go through sign/glide.

I've got Progressive's towing option on my insurance policy with as well, though I'm not sure if it's the sign and glide or not... I thought it was a Sea Tow membership, but I could be mistaken. I can't give any opinions on the matter as I've thankfully never had to use it yet, knock on wood.
