I read that the law to operate is higher, so is he allowed to? I also own one. Do I need an NH one? Thanks
Here you go—this is from the State Police website. Anyone under 16 must be under the supervision of someone 18+ with a boater's license. This applies to 25 horsepower or above. Anything under is the Wild West (and why so many boat renters get in trouble).

Also, great idea on exploring during the week—it's a significantly different landscape—though Saturday mornings (before 11/12) and Sunday afternoons (after 3/4) are often totally fine.
