Compare Boat Insurance for Baker & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and trailers to canoes and PWCs, we build policies for the Yellowstone River, local reservoirs, and trips through Montana's eastern plains.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, reservoirs, and varying conditions with potential for currents and wildlife encounters. 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.
Planning trips along the Yellowstone or to nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any storage requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Montana waters must be registered with Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of certain powerboats/PWCs need a Boating Education Certificate from FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels (e.g., USGS gauges), weather, and access points before you go. Storage facilities may require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or stored at a facility, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
