Compare Boat Insurance for Otis & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs to trailers for local lakes and rivers, we build policies for northeastern Colorado waters like the South Platte River, Jackson Lake, and trips to nearby reservoirs.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature variable weather, high winds, and recreational lakes with potential for sudden storms. 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 Jackson Lake or along the South Platte? 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-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), weather, no-wake zones, and access before you cast off. Storage facilities commonly require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or stored at a facility, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
