Compare Boat Insurance for May & Nearby Waters
From trailerable runabouts and fishing boats to small sailboats and PWCs, we build policies for local lakes, rivers, and reservoirs around May, including Optima Lake and nearby waterways in the Oklahoma panhandle.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local waterways feature lakes, rivers, and potential weather challenges like wind and 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.
Planning trips to Optima Lake or nearby rivers? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any facility requirements.

Oklahoma Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs operating on Oklahoma waters must be registered with the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boater Education Certificate from Oklahoma-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels, weather, and any restrictions before you go. Facilities may require proof of insurance to use ramps or docks.
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.
