Compare Boat Insurance for Fairfield & Nearby Waters
From fishing boats and small pontoons to kayaks and PWCs, we build policies for the Sun River, Gibson Reservoir, and trips to nearby lakes or rivers in Montana.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Montana's rivers and lakes feature currents, wildlife, and variable weather. 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 Sun River or to Gibson Reservoir? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and access site requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Montana waters must be registered with Montana 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 Montana FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels (e.g., USGS gauges), weather, and access points before you cast off. Many sites commonly require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use public access, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
Where Fairfield Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)
Many owners launch near the Sun River and head to Gibson Reservoir or other nearby lakes. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your storage—whether you keep the boat at a local ramp or trailer to regional sites.
