While we truely love our tourists and the money they bring our small state I have no problem if you want to stay in Oregon.
Let's put this in perspective. Most people boat on one or maybe two bodies of water. If I am dumb enough to run up on a rock and trash my outdrive, that's my problem. Many lakes in NH don't even have markers so it won't make a difference. Boating is a lot about local knowledge.

Some people seem to think that the boating certificate requirement has somehow been the holy grail for boating safety. It's not.

The safety record of boating in NH speaks for itself, and it did not take the certificate program to get there. Reading this the forum, some people must think everyone else is stupid.
