Compare Boat Insurance for Sweet Grass & Nearby Waters
From fishing boats and pontoons to small recreational vessels, we build policies for the Missouri River, area lakes, and trips to Montana's waterways around Sweet Grass and beyond.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Montana's rivers and lakes present unique challenges like swift currents, variable water levels, and recreational traffic. 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 Missouri River or local lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any storage requirements.

Montana Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most 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 certain powerboats need a Boating Education Certificate through FWP-approved courses. Carry your certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check river levels (e.g., USGS gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you launch. Facilities may 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.
