Compare Boat Insurance for Silverthorne & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for Lake Dillon, the Blue River, and nearby mountain lakes in Summit County.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature high-altitude lakes, variable weather, 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, winter storage, 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 Lake Dillon or along the Blue River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal winter lay-up periods, storm plans, and marina contract 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 (CPW). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via CPW-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels and weather (e.g., NOAA 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.
Where Silverthorne Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)
