- Additionally, we’ll ask you for home port information regarding the primary vessel, specifically if the boat is trailered, kept at a marina, or docked at home on the lake. Following this, we’ll ask you for the name of the boat ramp or marina you use most frequently.

Tow Sebago offers a discount for customers who own more than one boat. Remember, your membership is for services specific for a single vessel, and we don’t want you left adrift!
