TowBoatU.S. Ft. Lauderdale has the benefit of a professional and experienced crew. Most of our captains have been with us for over 5 years with over 15 years of marine experience. Our captains take great pride in interacting with the boating community. This level of experience enhances our ability to work well under sometimes stressful circumstances.
