The DOS NH Boating Laws and Responsibilities Handbook states on Page 48...
Requirements Specific to Ski Craft.
It is illegal to operate a ''ski craft'' within a cove (a bay or inlet that does not exceed 1000 feet at its widest point) or within 300 feet of shore unless the ''ski craft'' is proceeding at headway speed directly to an area where ''ski craft'' operation is permitted.
So unless it is an old handbook on-line... the regulation is 300 feet from the shore. It is copyrighted 2022.
Moving all vessels to the 300 foot rule may be what is being considered.
Lots of operators do not own lakefront... so changing the course of the lake quality would either be placing some restraints on them; or just focusing on shore front owners and placing severe restraints on them. Not exactly sure that is fair to the shore front owner.
