I've been vacationing on Winnipesaukee for 20 years and have only been stopped by the MP twice. Once they wanted to see my boating certificate, which is from CT, and the other was to see if we had a license when we were fishing. We did.
Both times the officers were very pleasant, and we talked for a few minutes afterward. The second guy suggested some fishing spots and said if we had any questions or needed anything to give them a call.
Editing to add that I think he even gave us a business card with the MP HQ's phone number on it. To the OP, if you keep getting stopped, I would do as others have said and ask the officer if there's something that stands out with your boat that keeps making them stop you.
