Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Local waterways feature rivers, reservoirs, 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 Lake Oahe? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local requirements.

South Dakota Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on South Dakota waters must be registered with the SD GFP, and some may require titling. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Most powerboat/PWC operators need a Boater Education Certificate issued via SD GFP-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check water levels (e.g., USGS gauges), no-wake zones, and access points before you cast off. Ramps and marinas often require proof of insurance.

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.

Where Green Grass Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Missouri River or local reservoirs and explore areas like Lake Oahe. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your storage location—whether you keep the boat at a river ramp or trailer to nearby lakes.

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