With your NHMP hat on you did not have probable cause to take legal action based on the photos you provided.  
Malicious prosecution is a tort.  
Bottom line, there is nothing in the way of a violation of the law in the photos you provided and as such no probable cause exists.

No, you did not and since articulable suspicion is an even lower standard than probable cause you would be opening yourself the dept and state up for a lawsuit under Title 42 US Code 1983 but I understand your lack of knowledge in these things since reading the law puts you to sleep.

I think I understand your complaints: the "evidence" is taken from still photographs—or, for that matter, a video. The wake, although present, isn't moving (as a wake should) in the photo, nor in this particular thread.

"Articulable suspicion", although a "low standard", remains the standard reason for a NHMP stop.

Exclamation

A "Terry Stop" is a "low standard" as well, but is still practiced in half of our states. Civil lawsuits aren't exactly pouring-out because of it—a good thing—except the ACLU would object (as usual).

Besides, it's other peoples money that's being spent.

ALL you have presented was one still photo...the first one...as "evidence"...the second photo, while it appears to be the same boat does not show a tow underway and only shows two people floating on a tube inches from the stern of a stationary boat.  If you believe that somehow that violates the law then you have no concept of boating or the law.

You claim that there is a video from which YOU are basing your statements...however what YOU presented as "evidence" was a single still photo of what appears to be a tow just getting underway and with no discernible violations of the law.

While the statement is true, the facts of "Articulable suspicion" of a violation of the law do not exist in the photos that you presented as "evidence" so there is no basis for a "stop" or citation.

I might also point out that you STILL have NOT provided the RSA number that you believe is being violated and since tickets issued require the officer to identify the RSA number that is being violated put on that magic NHMP cap you claim to be using and tell us what the number that you are required to write down might be.

Give it a rest. clown

I keep asking the same question, what RSA is he quoting to find his violations?  He keeps repeating that violations occurred but continues to refuse to say what RSA he is basing his opinion on.  

He is noted for making things up and stating them as fact no matter how absurd if he believes it advances his agenda.  I am calling him out on it.   Harken back to his statement of "fact" that the Marine Patrol webpage says it only wanted emergency calls, no business calls.  Even after I posted a copy of the page he insisted that it was emergency calls only.

I do get tired of it, but when a lie is repeated often enough and left unchallenged, it becomes the truth which is ultimately his goal.

There's a difference between "refusing to say" and "not having the law book open in front me". (Or not having one at all).

In any case, SBONH ("Boat Club") changes the RSAs so frequently, I could be "made wrong" every boating season.

There it is!  
You are guessing and assuming and have no knowledge of what the law actually says or how to check the language of the law but that does not stop you from proclaiming that there are violations when there are none, in fact if all of your "violations" were to be believed it could have the effect that Good Samaritans in the future would refused to help other boaters because of false concern of It's-Not-News-Hawk's fabricated "violations when in fact they are REQUIRED TO DO SO BY LAW unless it would result in damage or danger to their own vessels.

You should not be boating.

To an extent.  
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter  Etc. have obviously cut into the participation and popularity of forums, but face it, the two primary users of this particular forum appear to be you and INNH (at least on the winnipesaukee thread, I don't even look at the others) and most of INNH's posts are about violations that don't exist...or oversized 25 foot boats....or boats traveling at the speed of light or wakes the size of tsunamis, none of which exist outside of his head.  
It gets old very quickly.  
As I stated prior, the only reason I bother is because false statements that he tends to make will be hanging around online for decades, and in the future if someone is doing research, they might actually take his "statements of fact" to be true instead of the made up crap that they actually are.

The problem is the boating guide is NOT the law, it is a GUIDE and it is not published by the State of New Hampshire
Boat Ed is produced by Kalkomey Enterprises, Inc.

Like those horrible people out with their families in their oversized 25 foot boats enjoying themselves and those psychopaths that come to their aid in the event they need help on the water?  No, that's your own personal agenda.

So tell us, since YOU witnessed this event and claim to have captured these horrendous violations on video that you did not share with the rest of the group, did you call the Marine Patrol to report those life threatening violations since they obviously raised a RED flag with you or show them the recording?  
Or did you call them to inform them that a tow was in progress in the event that there was a patrol boat in the area that might have been able to assist?  

I think we already know the answer to those questions.

We just keep adding to the legitimate questions, based on HIS creation of this topic and thread that he keeps ignoring:

OO
I keep asking the same question, what RSA is he quoting to find his violations?  He keeps repeating that violations occurred but continues to refuse to say what RSA he is basing his opinion on.
and now we add these to the ignored questions list:
OO
So tell us, since YOU witnessed this event and claim to have captured these horrendous violations on video that you did not share with the rest of the group, did you call the Marine Patrol to report those life threatening violations since they obviously raised a RED flag with you or show them the recording?  
Or did you call them to inform them that a tow was in progress in the event that there was a patrol boat in the area that might have been able to assist?
but as I stated earlier:
I think we already know the answer to those questions.
A reasonable person would think that since it was HIS question about potential violations of the law in a still photograph that HE brought up in the first place, that he would be able to point to the specific law(s) that he claims were violated.

These are not hard or trick questions if he knew what he was talking about in the first place, but he doesn't, so he avoids and ignores.

If you can direct me to an updated list of RSAs that you'll accept, I'll give it a shot.

pirat

I didn't call the NHMP, and haven't for a couple of years. My criteria include a simultaneous viewing of a boating violation (or other hazardous activity) and an NHMP boat. Even then, the responses to my calls (responses that I can plainly see) are 'way too slow. Much of the time, the NHMP officer is running his engine(s), and can't hear loud-exhaust violations. Ocean-Racers in violation of speed limits are already out of sight.

One reason I started the thread is that the scene appeared to have a number of legal elements in it. Previously, I hadn't considered that a towing boat shouldn't also be towing another—having itself—a tube in tow. (And that a second view would show tubers without the required PFDs, and insufficient observers—also required).

Were any of the kids non-swimmers? affraid

How can you even suggest that the photographs have "a number of legal elements" in it when you don't even know how to find the language of the law?  

Regarding your "criteria" for calling the Marine Patrol...that they already be in sight as YOU witness a "violation"... that is just BS!

You apparently were not concerned about whether any of the kids were "non swimmers" as you witnessed the event....recorded it....and posted it online...but failed to alert the Marine Patrol of your perceived concern!

You are full of BS!

Just to be clear that using the NH Boating Guide as your source of THE LAW is incorrect, here is the disclaimer from the NH Boating Guide you keep referring to:
Information in this handbook does not replace what is specifi- cally legal for boating in New Hampshire, which is found in the
New Hampshire Statutes and federal law.

I separate noise and speed calls from other, more interactive, violations.

I don't remember my last call, but one dispatcher seemed to think that particular call was not important. The NHMP officer who arrived at the scene just two minutes later (while the dispatcher was blabbing to me), seemed to think that moving a cluster of swimmers and kayaks from the middle of the channel was a good idea. That was at least two seasons ago.

On noise and speed violations, I'll only call if I see an NHMP who can readily engage the scofflaw. That rare event can happen at any time, although I don't remember the last time I called. It's been awhile.

What are we paying the NHMP for, if not Enforcement?

"Flying the flag" isn't Enforcement.

There were no violations, it is a photo of a Good Samaritan lending a hand to a disabled boater.  I do, however, understand how that might be something that is difficult for you to comprehend.

I think he sensed that he was running on empty, and called the second boat.

The "Good Samaritan" appeared on the scene even before the oversized boat came to a halt. My reason to video the boat was that he was throwing a big wake—too big for Winter Harbor.

Any PFD violations were questioned here at this forum, as the first shot didn't show PFDs on the tubers.

The second, did, but it was then hours after the boat was towed off.

Your objection (and red hill's "ditto") is pointless.
