Your instructor was very wrong... In fact NH really has no input on where the stickers go... The convention is set by the USCG.... It is a universal system used by every state...

NH fought for years against it, they where the last state to adopt it... but finally when the Federal Government transportation secretary, said that if they didn't the would loose funding they adopted the convention, and granted reciprocity to boats registered in other states....

Some in NH and the Marine Patrol are still a little sore on the subject....
