Compare Boat Insurance for Lawrence & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to canoes and kayaks on Clinton Lake, the Kansas River, and nearby reservoirs, we build policies for local waterways and trips to Perry Lake or other Kansas spots.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and potential weather changes. 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 Kansas River or to Clinton Lake? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm plans, and any lake-specific requirements.

Kansas Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on Kansas waters must be registered with the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of powerboats may need a boater education certificate from KDWP-approved courses. Carry your certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Kansas River), weather, and any lake restrictions before you cast off. Some areas may require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
