❎ The Problem:
It is clearly important for insurers to ensure that their policies do not contravene IMO regulations. The use of AIS on tenders while under tow, as commonly required for basic tow protection, is specifically prohibited, and insurers that specify basic tow protection using AIS are requiring their captains to operate illegally.

✅ The Solution:
In order to comply with IMO regulations and also to broadcast AIS for safety once adrift, TowPro automatically starts broadcasting emergency AIS positions when the tow fails.

Why wait?
Once TowPro is onboard, it will monitor the full duration of the tow, day and night and be compliant with IMO regulations.
