If you have to carry a boaters card, why not just carry a license as well and avoid the potential problem? If you lose your drivers license you have to turn it in, but they don't require your boater card to go back although at that point it would be illegal to drive a boat.
A friend just got popped on Ossippee for being on a pwc without a boaters card, I will ask him if he had a DL at that time.
