Given the difference between racing and the kayaking most of us do,
I doubt it.
After all, I have yet to see anyone driving a Formula 1 car or Indy car
on city streets to commute to and from work.

Racing does produce lots of interesting stuff, but we muct be carefull
to not assume that just because something is good in racing, it is
good for everyone.

The goal of racing is to win the race.
Kayak camping/cruising is almost by definition, steping out of the 'race'
alltogether.
