Compare Boat Insurance for Princeton & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs to recreational vessels on the Marais des Cygnes River and nearby lakes like Perry Lake, we build policies for local waterways in Franklin County and beyond.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways in Kansas feature rivers, lakes, and potential weather challenges like fluctuating water levels. 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 Marais des Cygnes or to Perry Lake? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local access 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 (KDWP). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Education
Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need to complete a KDWP-approved boating safety course and carry the certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels, weather, and access points (e.g., via USGS or KDWP) before you go. Some areas may require proof of insurance for ramps or storage.
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.
