Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature reservoirs, rivers, and 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.

Heading to Elephant Butte or along the Pecos? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and storage requirements.

New Mexico Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on New Mexico waters must be registered with the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via New Mexico-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Marinas commonly require proof of insurance to dock.

Tip: If your boat is financed or you berth at a marina, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
