: I our kayak club one of the guys has LED running lights he built on
: his kayak. They cause almost instant night blindness for
: everyone else that paddles with him. Far worse a problem than
: not having lights in the first place.

When we go out at night on our club full moon paddles, we are dark unless we hear motors in the area (everybody has at least one of those camping headlamps). Amazing how far you can see even a black paddle blade shining in the moonlight.
