Compare Boat Insurance for St Mary & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and runabouts to PWCs, we build policies for the Mississippi River near St Mary, including areas around Ste. Genevieve and weekend trips along the river.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways on the Mississippi River involve currents, barge traffic, and 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 along the Mississippi or to nearby areas? 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 Missouri waters must be registered with the Missouri Department of Revenue, and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators born on or after January 1, 1984, need a Boating Safety Certification from approved Missouri courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Mississippi near Ste. Genevieve), 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.
