Compare Boat Insurance for Timber Cove & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Sonoma Coast, Bodega Bay, the Pacific Ocean, and weekend trips to nearby harbors.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways mix coastal conditions, fog, currents, and marine traffic. 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.
Headed to Bodega Bay or along the Sonoma Coast? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and marina contract requirements.

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 Boating Safety Certificate issued via CA State Parks–approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check tides/currents (e.g., NOAA Bodega Bay stations), no-wake zones, and pumpout access before you cast off. Marinas commonly 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.
