Many years ago that was the case. If you had Massachusetts bow numbers, and an annual MA registration sticker, NH would accept those numbers but you were required to buy the NH registration sticker and put it before your bow numbers.

When that changed, I actually got stopped on Winnipesaukee because I had not removed the old NH sticker. I explained that I understood that Massachusetts registrations were now good and the MP officer said yes, but you didn't take the old (unneeded) NH sticker off the boat. I think the MP does a good job but in my opinion that was a little weak.
