Has anyone ever used any of the online float plan services available in the USA?
I found three on the internet tonight 2 of them are free and one is a paid service.
James Dicks Public Service to aide in boating safety with a float plan

Float Plan Generator

MariSafe - Boating products and services designed to make you safe, smart and secure

Has anyone ever signed up or used one of these services? Seems like a great idea. You file a float plan and if you are overdue they call or email your emergency contacts. Some also provide a list of emergency numbers for your contact to use.
