Compare Boat Insurance for Tuolumne & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Tuolumne River, nearby lakes like Pinecrest and Don Pedro Reservoir, and mountain trips in the Sierra Nevada.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, reservoirs, and mountain lakes with varying water levels, currents, and recreational 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.
Heading to Pinecrest Lake or along the Tuolumne River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and storage 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 California Boating Card issued via approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels/currents (e.g., USGS Tuolumne River gauges), 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.
