I'm reading that now—nor on unpowered sailboats—tricky wording. (And at the bottom of each page:
"It's the LAW!")
Interesting exemption—which would leave a lot of boats defenseless in fog or darkness. Could they have been required in the past? I've attached a whistle to my PFDs for many years.

Ironically, I have two "unused-lately" kayaks available for a test: the frames are, respectively, wood and aluminum.

I'd want to know what propeller was used first: there are "cleavers", "choppers", and "rakers" that would make short work of kevlar
and aluminum.
