Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature rivers, lakes, and recreational areas with varying water levels and potential hazards. 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 Saluda River or to Lake Greenwood? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local boating requirements.

South Carolina Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on SC waters must be registered with the SC DNR, and certain vessels may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

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

Local Planning

Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges for the Saluda River), 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.

Where Ware Shoals Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Saluda River and head to Lake Greenwood or other nearby waterways. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your storage—whether you keep the boat on the river, at local marinas, or trailer to area lakes.

Pro tip: Keep photos of your hull, HIN, and electronics, plus receipts for upgrades. It helps with agreed value and claims.
