With over 14 years of experience in the insurance industry, Christopher Wagner founded WIA Marine Insurance in 2016 after years of involvement in high-performance boating, poker runs, and offshore races at Lake of the Ozarks. Seeing a major demand in protection for performance boats and powerboat enthusiasts, Chris set out to create a specialized agency focused on comprehensive marine and boat insurance for every type of vessel—fast, custom, or classic.

What began as a passion for protecting “all-things-speed” has evolved into one of the most trusted names in marine insurance nationwide. Today, WIA Marine Insurance is licensed in the entire Continental U.S., providing tailored boat insurance coverage and competitive premiums to boaters across the country. Whether it’s a high-performance catamaran, center console, yacht, or personal watercraft, WIA offers customized protection designed to fit your vessel and lifestyle.

As a former Motocross and Snocross racer, Chris understands the thrill of going fast and the importance of protecting what powers you. That same passion drives #teamWIA every day to deliver the highest standard of marine insurance solutions and five-star customer service to keep YOU covered on and off the water, wherever your next adventure takes you.
