Kayak Safety Flags

NoBozo · 07-23-2010, 01:59 PM

SP I think it makes perfect Common Sense for a kayaker ...or anyone else on the water to protect themselves in anyway they see fit. The problem I have is Making it a LAW. The key here is common sense. The kayaker...and Anyone Else out there has to take some responsibility for their OWN saftey..rather than leave it to Nanny to hold their hand when the going gets rough.

For example, as you know there is NO Requirement for you to carrry a radio in a small plane. Some of the older planes don't have an electrical system to support one. However, every small plane pilot I've met has at least a handheld radio in the cockpit...even though he is NOT Mandated to do so. It's just the Prudent thing to do.
