Compare Boat Insurance for Guilford & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and canoes to PWCs and lake cruisers, we build policies for Lake Sebec, the Piscataquis River, and trips to nearby Sebasticook Lake or the coast.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature lakes, rivers, and potential seasonal challenges like varying water levels and weather. 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 Lake Sebec or down the Piscataquis River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any launch site requirements.

Maine Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Maine waters must be registered with the Maine IFW, and certain boats may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Education Certificate issued via Maine IFW-approved courses. Carry your certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and any restrictions (e.g., via Maine IFW) before you cast off. Launch sites often require proof of insurance to use facilities.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a public ramp/marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
