Compare Boat Insurance for Willard & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and canoes to PWCs and river cruisers, we build policies for the Yellowstone River, Fort Peck Lake, and nearby reservoirs in eastern Montana.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waters feature rivers, reservoirs, and potential hazards like currents and wildlife. A modern boat policy bundles hull (your boat), liability (bodily injury & property damage you cause), medical payments, and options like on-water towing, salvage, and fishing gear/personal effects. If you trailer, we’ll address trailer coverage and auto liability for road incidents.
Planning trips on the Yellowstone or to Fort Peck? We’ll set navigation limits for inland waters, discuss seasonal storage, and cover storm or flood risks in Montana’s variable weather.

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
Operators of certain powerboats may need to complete a safety course through MT FWP. Carry your certification while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you go. Many sites require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or stored at a site, expect minimum liability limits and proof of insurance. We’ll provide certificates as needed.
