: Yes, Local Rules Do Exist... The bottom line is to, yes follow the regs, and,
: yes, to avoid other boats. The regs state we can have lights like a
: sailboat so, in my book, that's the safest thing to do and the easiest to
: teach to the average kayaker. If we look like a real boat in the dark than
: so be it... IT'S IN THE REGS!!!So you should look like a sailboat at anchor?!
: So, unless you have something more constructive to say, posts like yours are,
: in the end, worthless, you are simply looking for a forum to toot your
: horn, to show off your ego. Guys like you scare me because you would
: probably run someone over because they have the wrong light on and defend
: your actions by pulling out your books. More common sense and less
: attitude will go a long way in working with people to have the correct
: equipment.I seriously doubt Murray would intentionally run anyone over...but I'll bet good money he would prefer not to have to make that decision!
: In all of this discussion it appears that the CG needs to do a better job of
: not only informing the public on what is needed, it also needs to inform
: it's own units, manufacturers, and probably most of all, all of the retail
: outlets for kayaks in the country.This is probably also something the ACA and BCU could help disseminate.
