Compare Boat Insurance for Mason City & Nearby Waters
From fishing boats and pontoons to small PWCs, we build policies for the Platte River, Lake McConaughy, and other Nebraska waterways, including weekend trips to local reservoirs.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Nebraska's rivers and lakes present unique challenges like varying water levels, winds, 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 Platte or to Lake McConaughy? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and storage 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. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Many powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate through approved Nebraska courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and no-wake zones before you cast off. Storage facilities commonly require proof of insurance to dock.
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.
