I wonder what TowBoat US policy is on jumps and homeport etc.

How many boats do they have in the area. That is a tuff call, it is a non emergency but to schedule it???? You didn't know you had an issue until you stepped on the boat. If they are not willing to jump in your homeport your still need a tow to a repair facility? And you have to wait to a weekday for that......what if you have to work.

A friend of mine with a blown engine had SeaTow tow him across Scituate Harbor to the travelift all covered, this was during the week but no issues.

I myself have had a SeaTow membership for years and just used it for the first time Thursday. My fuel pump failed and fill the sump with gas. Got a tow from outside the North River to my mooring. Very satisfied with the operation the other day. It went very well. Now it was a weekday. Weekends I am sure you get to be a number on the list.
