Compare Boat Insurance for Gerrard & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Rio Grande River, nearby reservoirs, and mountain lakes in the San Juan region.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature mountain rivers, reservoirs, and potential for rapid weather changes. 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 the Rio Grande or nearby lakes? 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 Colorado waters must be registered with Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via Colorado Parks and Wildlife-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels and conditions (e.g., USGS gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Storage facilities commonly require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you store at a facility, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
