That's why I posted the link to the rules

There are always confusing and conflicting rules in NH.
In Braun Bay the rules say that the NRZ starts 75' from shore. So if you are 76' from shore, you are in a NRZ and the rules say you can't anchor 150' feet from shore, very confusing.
On who anchored first, the rules says:
...no person....shall, in a prohibited location...Anchor a single boat ....Less than 25 feet away from any other single boat...
So the violation is anchoring near another boat, not letting another boat anchor near you.
Unfortunately, if the MP tickets you, you have to take time off to go to court and fight it. And just like traffic and parking tickets, these tend to be prove you are innocent battles, and your word against the MP.
