ALEXANDRIA, VA - From Esquire to Redbook,
socks and underwear always make a showing on lists for the best Christmas gift
ideas. For about the same price, Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS) suggests giving the boater in the family a BoatUS or BoatUS Angler gift
membership. "We don't hate socks and underwear - they're necessary for
most of us - but I think a lot of boaters would like something more meaningful
than a new pair of skivvies," says BoatUS
spokesperson Scott Croft.
For boaters and sailors, there's BoatUS membership,
and for the serious angler in the family, there's BoatUS
Angler membership. Each is an affordable $24 and can be purchased by calling
1-800-395-2628.
Both come with a subscription to BoatUS Magazine or
to BoatUS Angler Magazine (respectively), and include
24/7 nationwide dispatch with $50 of on the water boat towing assistance and
$50 of roadside assistance for a disabled boat trailer and tow vehicle.
Exclusive fuel, transient slip and repair discounts, savings on boating gear,
fun online learning opportunities and access to lots of "how-to"
information is also included. Being a member also means a bigger voice for your
boater on Capitol Hill when government unfairly targets boaters with
anti-boating legislation.
Want to upgrade? Adding BoatUS' roadside "Unlimited"
Trailer Assist to a membership for an additional $14 provides 100 miles of free
road towing for both the disabled boat trailer and its tow vehicle to a safe
location or repair facility. This means your boater will thank you for not
having to leave their prized rig unattended while they try to find a new tire.
Lockout, flat tire, battery jump and fuel drop-off services are included in
this low price.
Another upgrade is adding an on-the-water towing plan: Freshwater boaters can
add "Unlimited" on the water towing to their membership for just $43
additional, while saltwater boaters can add it for $125 annually. Soft ungroundings, jump-starts, fuel delivery and tows back to a
marina, home dock or launch ramp are included for any boat that is owned,
rented, chartered or borrowed.
