R.A. Belter Insurance was founded in 1982 by Bob Belter as a local independent insurance agency serving the needs of businesses in Northern California. As a boater and outdoor enthusiast, Bob had the opportunity to work with a specialized insurance program in the late 1980s. That program sought to ensure Marinas and Boat Dealers and began what would ultimately become our specialty. Now retired,
Bob enjoys fishing, spending time with the grandkids, and getting to spend lots of time on the water.
Matt began his career in 1991 after graduating from the Commercial Union school for Agents. Being a lover of the water and waterskiing from a young age, Matt quickly geared his career towards the recreational marine niche. Matt wanted to spend most of his time on or near the water, boats, or in a marina! At Belter Insurance, he gets to do just that, all the while using his experience and business to help water lovers like himself.
Mitch began his career as an agent when he graduated college in 1999 with a Bachelors’ degree in Risk Management & Insurance at California State University. Mitch remembers his love of the water beginning when he was three years old. He spent afternoons watching in admiration as his older brothers waterskied. Mitch quickly joined them at a young age and participated in waterskiing, wakeboarding, wakeskating, and surfing.
Now, with three children of his own, they carry on the tradition of watersports and boating.
Seawalls are extremely important to the safety of boaters coming in and out of marinas and ports. We provide coverage to help keep them intact to continue doing the important work.

The news over the weekend of Jimmy Buffett’s passing moved us greatly.
Jimmy embodies everything we love about life on the water: relaxing and making the hard work worth it. He inspired and joined us on many boat trips, although he never knew it.
We raise a margarita (or a Land Shark, which ever works for us) to this man’s incredible presence and legacy. #parrotheadvibes
May your Labor Day weekend be spent on the water with family, eating all American foods. Enjoy your day of rest! #labordayweekend #california #goodbetterbelter
