Compare Boat Insurance for White Sands & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and PWCs to lake cruisers, we build policies for Elephant Butte Reservoir, Caballo Lake, and trips along the Rio Grande.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature reservoirs, rivers, 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 Elephant Butte or along the Rio Grande? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and lake/marina contract 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 certificate; check requirements via NM resources and carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels and conditions (e.g., via USACE or local sites), no-wake zones, and access 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.
