Compare Boat Insurance for New Salem & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for Cheney Reservoir, the Arkansas River, and nearby lakes for your outings in Kansas.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways in Kansas, like reservoirs and rivers, can have varying conditions. 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 Arkansas River or to Cheney Reservoir? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm plans, and any facility requirements.

Kansas Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Kansas waters must be registered with the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need to complete a safety course; check requirements via KDWP and carry certification if required.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and access points (e.g., for Cheney Reservoir) before you cast off. Facilities may require proof of insurance to use ramps or docks.
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.
