Given the strict BWI laws I would think this should be a non-starter, but then again the state motto is "Live Free or Die" so yeah, I guess NH prioritizes personal freedom to choose over public safety.
Why? The only one BWI laws pertain to are the operator of the boat, not the passengers. It is legal in NH for the operator to drink and have an open container as long as they don't exceed the legal limit. The passengers can do whatever they please.
