Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature lakes, rivers, and seasonal ice-out 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.

Heading to Pelican Lake or the Otter Tail River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal storage, ice considerations, and lake access requirements.

Minnesota Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on MN waters must be registered with the MN DNR, and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Education

Most operators need a Boating Safety Education Certificate issued via MN DNR-approved courses. Carry your certificate while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels, no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Marinas and launches commonly require proof of insurance.

Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.

Where Herman Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near Pelican Lake and head to local rivers or other west-central MN lakes. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storage plans with your launch site—whether you keep the boat locally or trailer to nearby areas.

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