Compare Boat Insurance for Judith Gap & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to canoes and kayaks, we build policies for Montana's rivers, lakes, and reservoirs around Judith Gap, including the Musselshell River and trips to nearby reservoirs like Deadman's Basin.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Montana's waterways feature rivers, lakes, and reservoirs with varying conditions like currents, wildlife, and weather changes. 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 Musselshell River or to area lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage options, storm preparations, and any local requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most motorized boats operating on Montana waters must be registered with Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of motorized vessels born after January 1, 1975, must complete a boater education course and obtain a Montana Boater Education Card. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels and conditions (e.g., USGS gauges for the Musselshell River), 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 ramps, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
