A couple of thoughts/questions:

Are the 3 seaters universally recognized as boats, or only in NH and other select states?

While I see the value to using a PWC at night, all in all I think it is a bit too risky for wide-spread adoption. The craft is very small and hard to see, you generally get wet (and it's colder at night), and the water spray in your face can make it hard to see (and night navigation isn't always the best visibility to begin with).
