Gas Prices affecting Boat usage??

I am looking into coming home this summer for vacation with my wife and we'd like to make the lake house a destination. The big boat is in storage and the little boat is probably not even registered. So, I'd like to tow my boat up. Just because it would be a huge pain in the rear for me to try and schedule a time to take the test doesn't mean that I shouldn't be on the water. My deep V Tracker boat goes 30mph wide open and I like to cruise at like 20 and I am probably TOO safe of an operator. I learned all my boating skills on Winnipesaukee growing up. I would spend the extra fuel to tow it up for just a week, because I want to boat there that bad. But thanks to a bunch of dummies who failed to yield to a sailboat/canoe etc, blew threw a "no wake" area and committed whatever other violation, I can't just come up to boat in the Live free or Die state and contribute to the economy in my most favorite place in the world and future retirement destination.
