Realizing that National Companies seldom acknowledge the nuances of a singular body of water, or boating community, Deckelman Marine has designed a program to accommodate the Chesapeake Bay “Boating Enthusiast”. Chesapeake Bay Assist Association is a product of the independent superior service the Deckelman family is recognized and respected for. The BAY ASSIST towing program provides distinct geographical coverage and distance, and is not based on dollar and time limits, or undefined areas.

Membership in Chesapeake Bay Assist Association is limited to the Chesapeake Bay boating community with Maryland Homeports. This enables us to provide the most comprehensive service to our members and address their needs on a more local level. Chesapeake Bay Assist Association offers various service options designed for no out of pocket expense when that unexpected breakdown occurs.  

In addition to providing marine assistance on the water, Chesapeake Bay Assist Association builds alliances through Business Affiliate Programs, designed to promote marine industries, and awareness to the conservation and integrity of the Chesapeake Bay.
