Compare Boat Insurance for Phelps & Nearby Waters
From small fishing boats and pontoons to kayaks and PWCs, we build policies for the North Twin Lake, Eagle River Chain, and surrounding inland waters in Phelps, Wisconsin.
Why Boat Insurance Matters Here
Local inland lakes and rivers feature variable water levels, weather changes, and recreational traffic. A modern boat policy bundles hull (your boat), liability (bodily injury & property damage you cause), medical payments, and options like on-water towing, salvage & wreck removal, and fishing gear/personal effects. If you trailer, we’ll address trailer coverage and auto liability for road incidents.
Exploring the Eagle River Chain or North Twin Lake? We’ll set navigation limits for inland waters, discuss seasonal storage, storm preparations, and any local launch requirements.

Wisconsin Boating Basics (What to Know)
Registration & Title
Most boats and PWCs on Wisconsin waters must be registered with the Wisconsin DNR. Keep registration aboard whenever underway.
Boating Safety Certificate
Most operators need a Boating Safety Certificate from Wisconsin DNR-approved courses. Carry your certificate while operating.
Local Planning
Check water levels (e.g., via DNR resources), no-wake zones, and boat launches before you go. Marinas may require proof of insurance.
Tip: If your boat is financed or you use a marina, expect minimum liability limits and proof of insurance. We’ll provide certificates as needed.
