So you are right, because you were moored, you were technically a stationary boat. Had you been in the process of rowing your boat to your mooring, the other boater could have come as close to you as he wanted, certainly far more that you would have been comfortable with, legally.
Here is the link to your original story/post.

I didn't think legal moorings could be that far out into the lake.

Sounds as though someone in that post ([url]http://www.winnipesaukee.com/forums/showpost.php?p=22199&postcount=1) was "fishing". Wonder if there was any other witnesses
