Compare Boat Insurance for Crookston & Nearby Waters
From fishing boats and pontoons to small sailboats, we build policies for the Niobrara River, Lake McConaughy, and local reservoirs around Crookston.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Nebraska's waterways feature rivers, lakes, and reservoirs with varying conditions. 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 Niobrara or to Lake McConaughy? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any storage requirements.

Nebraska Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on Nebraska waters must be registered with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Operators of motorboats may need a boating education certificate from approved Nebraska courses. Carry your certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and safety zones before you cast off. Some areas may have specific rules for ramps or lakes.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use public ramps, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
