Compare Boat Insurance for Ruby & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and river skiffs to canoes and PWCs, we build policies for the Yukon River, nearby lakes, and trips through Alaska's interior waterways.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Alaska's rivers and lakes feature fast currents, remote areas, wildlife encounters, and extreme weather. 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 address trailer coverage and auto liability for overland travel.
Navigating the Yukon or nearby tributaries? We’ll set navigation limits for inland rivers, discuss seasonal storage in cold weather, and cover storm plans for high water or ice.

Alaska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs on Alaska waters must be registered with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need to complete a safety course; check with Alaska for requirements and carry certification if applicable.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Yukon River), weather, and access points before you go. Be prepared for remote conditions.
Tip: If your boat is financed or stored in a remote area, expect minimum liability limits and proof of insurance. We’ll provide certificates as needed.
