As a CCGA CE inspector, I wouldn't fail your shiny boards, for the reason you have stated.

I hope you fail all the higher speed power boats with transom stern lights that dip below their stern wave when they are motoring somewhere between idle and on plane...or the CC's with T-tops and the light is mounted short and aft on the top... the same happens to their masthead light but from ahead...
See it all the time...MANY boays don't comply a lot of their on the water time...so a degree or two for Marin's light should be no big deal..
