Compare Boat Insurance for McGrath & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and skiffs to PWCs and river vessels, we build policies for the Kuskokwim River, nearby lakes, and trips to the Yukon River area.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Alaska's rivers and lakes feature remote areas, varying water levels, wildlife, and seasonal ice. A modern boat policy bundles hull (your boat), liability (bodily injury & property damage you cause), medical payments, and options like on-water towing, emergency assistance, salvage, and fishing gear/personal effects. If you trailer, we’ll also address trailer coverage and where auto liability responds during over-the-road incidents.
Planning trips on the Kuskokwim or to the Yukon? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, ice considerations, and remote access needs.

Alaska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Alaska waters must be registered with the Alaska DMV. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need a safety certificate from Alaska-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Kuskokwim River), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Remote areas often require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use public launches, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
Where McGrath Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)
Many owners launch near the Kuskokwim River and head to nearby lakes or the Yukon River. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and emergency plans with your storage—whether you keep the boat riverside or trailer to other access points.
