Compare Boat Insurance for New Hartford & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to canoes and PWCs, we build policies for the Cedar River, local lakes, and trips around Iowa's waterways.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Iowa's rivers and lakes bring varying water levels, currents, 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.
Planning trips on the Cedar River or nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local facility requirements.

Iowa Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Iowa waters must be registered with the Iowa DNR, and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Many powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate through Iowa DNR-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and any restrictions via Iowa DNR resources before you go. Some facilities may 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.
