Compare Boat Insurance for Big Sky Colony & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the lakes around Big Sky Colony, such as the Beaverhead River, nearby reservoirs, and trips to Montana's scenic waterways.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, 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 to the Beaverhead or nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and storage requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on MT waters must be registered with MT FWP, and boats over certain lengths may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Education Certificate issued via MT FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS stations), 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 storage, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
