Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature rivers, reservoirs, and potential for rapid 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 Gila River or to Elephant Butte Reservoir? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage options, storm preparations, and any local water body requirements.

New Mexico Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

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

Boating Safety Certificate

Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need to complete a safety course through NM State Parks or approved providers. Carry your certification while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels and flows (e.g., USGS for Gila River), no-wake zones, and access points before you go. Public ramps often require proof of insurance.

Tip: If your boat is financed or you use public ramps, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance.” We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
