Compare Boat Insurance for Chitina & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Copper River, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, and trips to the coast.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature glacial rivers, remote conditions, and wildlife. 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.
Heading along the Copper River or to coastal areas? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and remote storage requirements.

Alaska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Alaska waters must be registered with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators may need a boating safety course; check with Alaska State for requirements and carry your certification while operating.
Local Planning
Check river conditions, currents (e.g., NOAA for Alaska stations), and environmental regulations before you cast off.
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.
