Prearranged Courtesy Tows

​T-BART assists are typically the tow of a stranded boat from the open water on the lake to a safe harbor, such as a dock or launch ramp.  If you are stranded out on the lake and need assistance dial 911.

Courtesy tows are typically a tow of an non-operational boat from a safe harbor (e.g., a dock) to another safe harbor (e.g., a marina or launch ramp).

T-BART will provide a courtesy tow to a boater if requested in advance and when scheduled through an agreement between the requester and the T-BART Captain who will perform the tow.

To request a courtesy tow contact the T-BART Director of Operations at  [email protected] or call 865-209-4854 

Do not dial 911 to request a courtesy tow
