Hi Guys,

I have my boat registered in Mass, but want to go up to a friends house in NH and go tubing on a lake for the weekend. Does anyone know if I am required to have a NH boaters license in order to put the boat on the lake and use it?

Thanks,
Tyler

The information is easily found on the New Hampshire website for boating regulations. It looks as if you're fine as long as you have a Mass. registration and you're not there for more than 30 consecutive days.

You need a boaters safety certificate from NH or the state you are from.

See their license page

While there are many commercial sites that publish the rules for various states, I like to go to the state website to ensure I am reading the most up-to-date info.
