Compare Boat Insurance for Cocoa & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Indian River, Banana River, and coastal trips to the Atlantic, including Merritt Island and Cocoa Beach areas.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature coastal conditions, bridges, and varying weather. 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 Indian River or out to the Atlantic? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and marina contract requirements.

Florida Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Florida waters must be registered with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), 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 FWC-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check tides/currents (e.g., NOAA Cocoa stations), no-wake zones, bridges, 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 Cocoa Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)
Many owners berth or launch near the Indian River and head to the Banana River, Merritt Island, or the Atlantic. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your marina—whether you keep the boat locally or trailer to coastal ramps.
