Compare Boat Insurance for Carroll & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for the Elkhorn River, Platte River, and weekend trips to nearby lakes and reservoirs.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and potential hazards like changing 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.
Heading to the Platte or Elkhorn Rivers? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal storage periods, storm plans, and any facility requirements.

Nebraska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Nebraska waters must be registered with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boater Education Certificate issued via Nebraska-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Elkhorn River), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Storage facilities commonly 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.
