The Port
A captain, a boat, and a phone.
We offer emergency on water assistance for Possum Kingdom Lake. No showroom and no counter — the work happens on the water, and the boat leaves when the call comes.
About us
Who we are.
TowBoatUS Possum Kingdom provides 24/7/365 on-water assistance throughout Possum Kingdom Lake and the Graford, Texas area.

What we sell
Fast, professional, dependable.
Towing off a rock, fuel brought out, a jump start, a salvage or recovery job, a marina transfer — it is all the same call, and it is all priced as a service call rather than a trip to a store. Emergency marine services run $300 an hour; salvage work is priced job by job, depending on what the job takes.
