Compare Boat Insurance for Strathcona & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and canoes to PWCs and lake cruisers, we build policies for local lakes like Lake of the Woods, the Roseau River, and trips to nearby waterways in northern Minnesota.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature lakes, rivers, and seasonal ice, 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.
Heading to Lake of the Woods or along the Roseau River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal storage, ice-out preparations, and any access requirements.

Minnesota Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Minnesota 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., DNR reports for Lake of the Woods), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Public ramps may require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use public ramps, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
