  While this is very true, I quite often rely on my hearing to provide
warning of events occurring behind me.  The approach of a boat, a
breaking wave, a whale (only when lucky), a whistle or warning horn,
etc.  Paddling in fog your hearing becomes especially important.
  I hope that there's a good answer to this hearing aid issue - since
hopefully we'll all be paddling for many more years and may need to know
about such things.<g>
