On Winni, you won't be asked to produce a flare gun, but on the coast you would.

Actually you wouldn't be required to produce a flare gun on the ocean either.
You WOULD be required to show a daytime and nighttime visual distress signal. Non-pyrotechnic visual signals that are approved are Orange flag (daytime only) Electric distress light (nighttime only)
Obviously the most common form of visual distress signals are pyrotechnic in nature, but its is not the exclusive form of VDS.
This USCG site explains more about VDS.

If your ID indicates you are within the age group that is required to carry a boating ed certificate, then you will be asked to produce it. No "just in case" applies here.

Actually my "just in case" means "in the event" that I am boarded and the NHMP insists upon seeing a NH boating education certificate after I produce a USCGAux boating education certificate.
BTW, where does a cutie in a bikini keep her boating education certificate?
