Perhaps it's another tourist...here are some sample opinions—the first from BoaterEd's most revered cruiser captain:

Quote:
"...[Kayaks are] allowed at night as long as they have a flashlight they can shine to warn approaching vessels. Same for small sailboats, a flashlight on the sail is enough... according to the rules...!"
Another's view...
Quote:
I thought kayaking/canoeing/etc were not permitted at all at night! Isn't this correct????
And another...
Quote:
I thought they teach you this stuff in a boating class... The Kayak should of had a flash light or something by law I thought?

Anyway, a photograph would have been nice—I'm told kayaks can't be seen!

Besides, this time of year there is hardly any boat traffic for the kayak to run over.
