Compare Boat Insurance for Ada & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Red River of the North, local lakes like Lake Agassiz, and trips to nearby waterways in Minnesota.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature river currents, seasonal ice, and recreational areas. 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.
Heading to the Red River or nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal storage, ice-out preparations, and launch site requirements.

Minnesota Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Minnesota waters must be registered with the Minnesota DNR, and certain boats may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via Minnesota DNR-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels, weather, and no-wake zones before you cast off. Storage facilities often require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you store at a facility, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
