TowBoat U.S., Lake of the Ozarks

TowBoatU.S. started offering non-emergency towing services to members in 1987. They started on the East and West coast as those areas were the most populated waterways. They offered assistance towing, fuel drops, battery jumpstart, and soft ungrounding. In 2001, Captain Charles Meyer noticed the Lake of the Ozarks was growing and needed a TowBoatU.S. Service. He founded TowBoatU.S.- Lake of the Ozarks.

As the years passed, the number of boats on the lake continued to increase. Captain Meyer recognized the demand for service by adding 3 additional boats and captains to the fleet.
