It might be interesting to know how much, or how little drinking others
allow on a boat and under what circumstances.....

Zero - no alcohol allowed aboard.

If clients want a couple of beers after to talk about the days
fishing, I allow that at the dock and have a locked cooler for their
use where they can keep their beer or other alcohol. If we're using
the Ranger, we'll stop on the way back for a quick one at several
places I know at the ramps I normally use.

Soft drinks are the only drinks allowed onboard - period, no
exceptions.

And to answer the inimitable questions:

1 - Yes, I have terminated a trip where somebody put liquor into juice
bottles.

2 - Yes, I have refused to take somebody along who I felt wasn't
sober.

3 - It's my policy and it's strictly enforced - if you don't like it,
tough.

So, you're saying "no alchohol", in other words. Or booze.
