Officially you are allowed to board after A60 or at his BP position, whichever is higher.

If I were in this situation, I would board at the end of the A1-30 line, splitting the difference between the A-list BP and family pre-boarding. With nobody directly behind me, the transaction would be just between me and the Ops Agent, and I might explain that I was meeting their policy halfway.
