Compare Boat Insurance for Murdock & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to canoes and PWCs on local lakes and rivers, we build policies for the Minnesota River, nearby lakes like Lake Koronis, and trips across the prairie.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waters feature calm lakes, rivers with varying currents, and seasonal ice, making coverage essential. 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 Minnesota River or nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, ice-out preparations, and any launch site requirements.

Minnesota Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on MN waters must be registered with the MN DNR. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via MN DNR-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS for the Minnesota River), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Marinas or launches may 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.
