Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways mix remote rivers, currents, wildlife, and varying conditions. A modern boat policy bundles hull (your boat), liability (bodily injury & property damage you cause), medical payments, and options like on-water towing, fuel-spill liability, salvage & wreck removal, and fishing gear/personal effects. If you trailer, we’ll also address trailer coverage and where auto liability responds during over-the-road incidents.

Headed along the Yukon or Koyukuk Rivers? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any remote storage requirements.

Alaska Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on AK waters must be registered with the Alaska DMV, and boats over certain lengths may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via AK-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check river conditions, currents (e.g., NOAA Bettles area stations), and access points before you cast off. Remote areas may require proof of insurance.

Tip: If your boat is financed or stored remotely, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.

Where Bettles Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Koyukuk River and head to the Yukon or nearby lakes. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your storage—whether you keep the boat upriver or trailer to other access points.

Pro tip: Keep photos of your hull, HIN, and electronics, plus receipts for upgrades. It helps with agreed value and claims.
