Compare Boat Insurance for Sunburst & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs on local lakes and rivers to trips in Glacier Country, we build policies for the Marias River, Lake Elwell, and nearby reservoirs in northern Montana.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, reservoirs, and potential weather shifts. 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 Marias River or to Lake Elwell? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local 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). Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need a Boating Education Certificate through FWP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), weather, and any restrictions before you go. Public ramps 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.
