I think this is a very sensible approach. However, more detail is needed for the solution.

What specific patroling and enforcement actions will be taken?
Are any new regulations needed (possibly not)?
How much money is required to fund these actions?
Where will the money come from?

As you suggest the Patrol's budget is limited and getting money in NH is always hard to do. It might be suggested that registration be increased but I would like to see assurances that the extra money be specifically allocated to the patrol activities outlined in answer to the first question above.

Another benefit would be that pesistant unsafe boaters might get the message that their actions are unwelcome and go elsewhere.
