It seems to me that if a child is not old enough to operate a boat under the current NH law then they can not operate the boat regardless of the parent being snockered.
With all the threads regarding carelessness of boaters & not knowing the boating regulations, a child operating a boat could be very dangerous & inviting serious trouble. The parents must be more responsible & not put their child in that difficult situation to begin with. Would you want children operating cars if the operator was snockered?
