Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature river currents, reservoirs, and recreational traffic. 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.

Headed to Truman Lake or the Osage River? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and marina contract requirements.

Missouri Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on MO waters must be registered with the MO Department of Conservation, and boats over certain lengths may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boater Education Certificate issued via MO-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check river levels (e.g., USGS gauges for Osage River), no-wake zones, and pumpout access before you cast off. Marinas commonly 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 Miami Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Osage River and head to Truman Lake or the Lake of the Ozarks. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your marina—whether you keep the boat locally or trailer to nearby reservoirs.

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