We had radar on an offshore fishing boat we owned several years back. We bought it primarily because the inlets we went in and out of got really fogged in at times and we wanted the security of knowing what was in our vicinity. As you mentioned, yes it is likewise useful at night.
For Winnipesaukee it's probably overkill but you just never know when something bad/potentially bad is going to happen. With that said, while I have not priced it out lately it wasn't cheap when we bought it.
