Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature high-altitude lakes, swift rivers, and variable weather conditions. A modern boat policy bundles hull (your boat), liability (bodily injury & property damage you cause), medical payments, and options like on-water towing, wildfire/smoke-related coverage, 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.

California Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on CA waters must be registered with the CA DMV, and boats over certain lengths must be titled. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a California Boating Card issued via state-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for Mammoth Lakes), weather, and access restrictions before you cast off. Marinas and lakes commonly require proof of insurance to launch or dock.

Tip: If your boat is financed or you store at a lake/marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
