Somebody must like it. Steve Scarborough, maybe. And I do have to admit that they have done quite well selling those things. Still......... ******************************************************* This ties in with the thread about visibility. Some of Dagger's color schemes are reminiscent of the "dazzle paint" used to camouflage warships during WWI. You would think painting a ship with large geometric patches of contrasting colors would make it more visible, not less, but apparently they helped to mask the shape of the vessel. Is it possible that Dagger's multicolor kayaks are less visible than their solid color kayaks?
