most kayakers have no idea of the risk of what they are doing, its pretty amazing actually. They just think they can go tooling around out there with no PFD and just have a laugh. I usually stay very close to shore and stay out of channels as much as possible (sometimes have to cross them of course).
The real yahoos out there on the north shore are the rowers (their backs face forward - like crew rowing) and they are way out there in the boat traffic its unreal. I've seen them in the fog too, paddleboarders too!
