Compare Boat Insurance for Bedford & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs to canoes and kayaks on the Merrimack River or nearby lakes, we build policies for Bedford boaters exploring local rivers, ponds, and short trips to the seacoast.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Bedford's waterways include rivers, lakes, and ponds with varying conditions like currents and weather changes. 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 Merrimack River or to nearby lakes? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any launch site requirements.

New Hampshire Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on NH waters must be registered with NH Fish and Game. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Education Certificate issued via NH-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check river flows, weather, and access points before you cast off. Some areas may require proof of insurance for launches or storage.
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.
