Compare Boat Insurance for El Duende & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for Abiquiu Lake, the Rio Grande, and nearby rivers and reservoirs in northern New Mexico.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and potential weather shifts. 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 Abiquiu Lake or along the Rio Grande? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any lake or marina requirements.

New Mexico Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on NM waters must be registered with NM State Parks, and certain vessels may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via NM-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels and flows (e.g., USGS for the Rio Grande), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Reservoirs and marinas often require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a reservoir marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
