Your reference to being "boarded" is not correct unless you are in coastal waters.
Perhaps the term "boarded" is not appropriate for NHMP, but the result is the same.

So, the USCG orders my vessel to "stand down and prepare to be boarded", and the NH MP orders my vessel to "stand down....and ...'what'?... pull over to the curb"?

The bottom line is a law enforcement agency has (to use an automobile term)... PULLED YOU OVER!

You want to say I haven't been "boarded" because an officer didn't step foot on my boat?
Fine!

The entire point of my original post is to say that in "IN THE EVENT" that NHMP "PULLS ME OVER" and demands to see my NH Boating Certificate and I present him/her with a USCGAux Boating Certificate instead (which was accepted by NASBLA years before NH was accepted) and he/she rejects my USCGAux boating certificate as being valid, I will produce a copy of Section 270-D:15, and see what happens.

That's all. Out.
