Compare Boat Insurance for St Ignatius & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and lake cruisers to canoes and PWCs, we build policies for Flathead Lake, the Clark Fork River, and trips to nearby reservoirs and mountain streams.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Montana's waterways feature swift rivers, mountain lakes, 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.
Heading to Flathead Lake or along the Clark Fork? 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 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 MT FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), weather, and access points before you cast off. Marinas and public ramps commonly require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
