Compare Boat Insurance for Garita & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs to lake cruisers on reservoirs like Conchas Lake or the Rio Grande, we build policies for the high desert waters, local rivers, and recreational trips in northern New Mexico.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways in New Mexico feature variable weather, elevation changes, and potential for sudden storms. 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 Conchas 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 storage requirements.

New Mexico Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on NM waters must be registered with the NM Department of Game and Fish. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Many powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Education Certificate issued via NM-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Rio Grande), weather, and access points before you cast off. Some areas may 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.
Where Garita Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)
Many owners launch near local lakes or rivers and head to spots like Conchas Lake or the Rio Grande. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your storage—whether you keep the boat at a nearby reservoir or trailer to regional sites.
