Compare Boat Insurance for Oswego & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to PWCs and lake cruisers, we build policies for Syracuse Lake, Lake Wawasee, and nearby Indiana waterways, including trips to the Tippecanoe River.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Indiana's inland lakes and rivers present unique challenges like varying water levels, weather changes, 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, 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.
Exploring Lake Wawasee or the Tippecanoe River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and lake association requirements.

Indiana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Indiana waters must be registered with the Indiana DNR, and certain vessels may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Education Certificate issued via Indiana DNR-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and no-wake zones before you cast off. Marinas and lake associations 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.
