So I went out recently, and I had the worst encounter possible: the Marine Police! They pulled us over for not having registration sticker and bow numbers on the bow of our boat. I had them last year, and I honestly have no idea where they went; maybe they took them off for winter storage when I had them at the cape? Anyway, they asked for my registration on paper, and I also couldn't find that for the life of me. I was planning on grabbing an NH registration anyway, but now I will do it before I go out tomorrow. I called my Marina, and luckily, they are able to do the registration there, and I don't have to mess with the town. When the police pulled me over, they didn't ask for my boating license for some reason, but they did do the "safety cheek" for life jackets and such. I had luckily read elsewhere on a forum that they ask for these things so I knew where they were before they came, just not my registration
Other than that, we have been having a blast on the lake; though my son complains the water is too cold for swimming, I think he is soft. Kidding... I did grab him a wetsuit so he could be comfortable when skiing. I can't wait for the rest of the summer, and I thank everyone for all of their help on this forum and others, I have felt really prepared for anything on the lake. Happy boating!
