Compare Boat Insurance for Deer Lodge & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats on the Clark Fork River to lake outings in the Bitterroot Valley and trips to Georgetown Lake, we build policies for Montana's rivers, reservoirs, and recreational waters around ZIP 59722.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Montana's waterways feature rivers, lakes, and varying conditions with potential for swift currents, wildlife encounters, and remote areas. 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 on the Clark Fork or to area 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), and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river flows, weather, and access points (e.g., USGS for Clark Fork) before you cast off. Storage facilities often 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.
