It seems from what was posted on the forum this summer and what I heard out on the lake that this was not a good year for the MP. There were more complaints this year concerning bad call's by the MP then ever before. People who normally stood up for the MP were even having problems this year.
You probably got your ticket dismissed as soon as the MP officer brought it in.
The law clearly states that only the stern light is needed when at anchor.
The bow light signals that you are under way.
