Compare Boat Insurance for Clayhole & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and kayaks to PWCs and recreational vessels, we build policies for the Kentucky River, Red River, and nearby lakes in eastern Kentucky, including trips to Cave Run Lake or other regional waterways.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and varying conditions that can include currents, weather changes, 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 Kentucky River or to nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm preparations, and any marina requirements.

Kentucky Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Kentucky waters must be registered with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Department of Vehicle Regulation. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate from Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels, weather, and access points (e.g., via USGS or KY resources) before you cast off. Marinas commonly require proof of insurance to dock.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you berth at a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
