Why Boat Insurance Matters Here

Vermont's waterways feature rivers, lakes, and potential for swift currents or seasonal ice. 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 Connecticut River or to Lake Champlain? We’ll set navigation limits that match your plans and discuss seasonal lay-up periods, storm plans, and any marina requirements.

Vermont Boating Basics (What to Know)

Registration & Title

Most boats and PWCs operating on Vermont waters must be registered with the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. Keep registration aboard whenever under way.

Boating Safety Certificate

Operators of powerboats/PWCs may need a Boating Safety Certificate issued via Vermont-approved courses. Carry your card while operating.

Local Planning

Check river levels and weather (e.g., via USGS or NOAA), 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 South Strafford Boaters Go (and How We Insure It)

Many owners launch near the Connecticut River and head to local lakes or Lake Champlain. We coordinate navigation limits, towing zones, and storm plans with your marina—whether you keep the boat on the river or trailer to nearby ramps.

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