I'm a NH citizen. And there's ways to pay for this, other than through property taxes. Here's something to consider: Kayaking is now the fastest growing segment of the entire boating community. As a kayaker, I would certainly be willing to pay a reasonable registration fee, if the funds were used toward more lake marine patrol and towards more car top put ins (or at least some parking areas). And I think most other paddlers would also be willing to help pay to make the lakes more accessable and safer for us.
