Get off your high horse and take the course, you sound like the exact person that should take the test. You probably don't know as much as you think you do!
Oh sure, when I fly out for my two week vacation this summer, I'll be sure to make time to take a boating course in NH.

Get real!

I live 3000 miles away; the LAST thing I want to do is blow a day in some classroom.

But as I said, I'll probably take a course offered locally by the Coast Guard Auxiliary which will yield the now all-important boating certificate.

I was surprised to find that the penalty for operating a boat in NH without the boating certificate was so trivial.

Couple that to seemingly low chance of discovery, and a risk analysis becomes inevitable, at least for those with a scofflaw gene.

Thanks to the one responder who actually chose to answer my question.

As for the rest of you ...
