Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways include rivers, lakes, and access to coastal areas with 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 Concord River or to Boston Harbor? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and marina requirements.

Massachusetts Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on MA waters must be registered with the MA Environmental Police, and boats over certain lengths may require additional documentation. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate from MA-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels, tides (if applicable), no-wake zones, and local regulations before you cast off. Marinas often 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.

Where Bedford Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Concord River or local lakes and head to Boston Harbor or nearby waterways. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your marina—whether you keep the boat locally or trailer to coastal areas.

Pro tip: Keep photos of your hull, HIN, and electronics, plus receipts for upgrades. It helps with agreed value and claims.
