    We played football on the canal again last night under some nearby street lights.  It was interesting to see the difference in the visibility of the  kayaks.  Yellow was by far the most visible. Orange was second and red a distant third.  Blue disappeared. PFD color seemed irrelevant.  It simply was not a large enough surface to show up well.  I guess that is where reflectivity comes into play.
