The most visible kayak I ever saw belonged to a character who hung around
the Downtown Boathouse.  He had a sit-on-top kayak that he had added all
kinds of junk, and I mean junk.  To add to the junk he took neon paint
(florescent green and some other color) and painted all over the sides and
deck.

I was paddling one day on the lower Hudson and I could spot his boat well
over a mile away it was that visible.

Trouble with what he did for others is who want to do this to a sleek
fiberglass kayak?
