Compare Boat Insurance for Burlington & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for John Martin Reservoir, the Arkansas River, and trips to nearby lakes in eastern Colorado.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature reservoirs, rivers, and varying 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, 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 John Martin Reservoir or along the Arkansas River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and storage requirements.

Colorado Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on CO waters must be registered with Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and boats over certain lengths may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via CO-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS for the Arkansas River), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Marinas commonly require proof of insurance to dock.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you store at a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
