You note the Webster consider's a boat a vehicle, but the State of NH clearly does not include boats in the term "motor vehicle". This just came up in the Blizzard case.

This really doesn't effect the fact that the Town of Wolfeboro can give you a $250 fine if you park your boat there. The fact that no one can park there without violating either their law or the rules for using a handicapped placard won't stop the local PD from writing the ticket. It's up to you to fight it.
