Compare Boat Insurance for Kake & Nearby Waters
From skiffs and fishing boats to kayaks and small powerboats, we build policies for Frederick Sound, Kupreanof Island waters, and trips to nearby bays in Southeast Alaska.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature strong tides, remote areas, and wildlife encounters. 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.
Exploring Frederick Sound or nearby bays? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any mooring requirements.

Alaska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on Alaska waters must be registered with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG), and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Many powerboat operators need a Boater Education Card issued via ADFG-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check tides/currents (e.g., NOAA Kake stations), weather, and pumpout access before you cast off. Marinas may require proof of insurance to dock.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you berth at a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
