I am with Van. I will stop and lend a hand but I will not tow at all!! This is a job for a towing service and not my motor. You should never pass by a fellow boater that needs help but after all is safe and there is no danger you should then just stand by till REAL help can get there. I would hate to see someone hurt by a snapped tow line that sent a bow eye or other item into one of the two boats and I have seen this happen more than once and was not happy at the outcome. I belong to Towboat US and would not think of asking someone else to tow me in.
