I don't know what the law says, but the boating guidebook says:

"It is against the law to anchor your boat overnight on any inland surface waters of the State of New Hampshire. Overnight is defined as “the period of time between the termination of daylight in the evening to the earliest dawn of the next morning.”"

Seems to me that you can't move at 1 AM and be legal, if the guide book is accurate.
