Compare Boat Insurance for Ruthville & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to canoes and kayaks, we build policies for the Missouri River, Lake Sakakawea, and local lakes around Ruthville.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and varying weather 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.
Planning trips on the Missouri River or to Lake Sakakawea? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and talk through seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any dock requirements.

North Dakota Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats operating on ND waters must be registered with the ND Game and Fish Department. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Education
Many powerboat operators need a boating safety course from ND Game and Fish. Carry your completion card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., USACE for the Missouri River), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Launch sites may require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a launch site, expect minimum liability limits and “proof of insurance” (COI). We’ll provide certificates at binding and renewal.
