Compare Boat Insurance for Paradise & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and canoes to rafts on the Clark Fork River, we build policies for Paradise, the Clark Fork, and trips to nearby lakes like Flathead.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and potential rapids. 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 Clark Fork or Flathead Lake? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and launch site requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on Montana waters must be registered with Montana FWP. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat operators need a Boater Education Certificate issued via FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels (e.g., USGS Clark Fork gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Launch sites commonly require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a launch site, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
