I have been boating on the lake for nearly 20 years and can't for the life of me navigate using a compass and the rules. It might be fun to learn but I really don't think it's necessary. I just rely on the Bizer chart and at a glance there is NO confusion what side to be on.
I guess if I lost my chart I would be SOL though!!

Perhaps I should clarify, I've used the technique when gunkholing, at very slow speed, while looking for rocks and such, not at speed. This was on Pawtuckaway lake too. There's no chart for the lake (that I know of), and some of the many markers are ambiguous. It's a beautiful, but very rocky lake. I use at least one of my three charts (two paper, one electronic) on Winnipesaukee at all times.
