As Skip noted,there is no law against having open containers in the boat.Different story when tied up at public docks.As far as what the body metabolizes,I can speak to that.The average person's liver can process 1 oz of alchohol per hour.1-12 oz beer,1-4 oz glass of wine,or 1 shot of liquor.If you have a .08 bac and consume these amounts per hour you would stay at the .08.These numbers are general and would be a little different for different people but are numbers used in an impaired driver intervention course required by the state after a DUI.
