Compare Boat Insurance for Fontanelle & Nearby Waters
From fishing boats and small pontoons to canoes and kayaks, we build policies for Iowa lakes, rivers, and reservoirs around Fontanelle, including areas like Lake Anita and the nearby Raccoon River.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways in Iowa feature rivers, lakes, and potential weather challenges like floods. 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.

Iowa Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on Iowa waters must be registered with the Iowa DNR. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Many powerboat operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via Iowa DNR-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and DNR resources before you go. Some areas may have specific rules for lakes or rivers.
