Highly reflective tape on cap/helmet, PFD and paddle is probably
better, more fail safe, and what we use - combined with florousent
tape on one side of the paddle blades (highly reflective on the other 
side) - we also have flourosent vests we can don, on top of the PFDs, 
and strobes!

I must admit to slight confusion here.  What is the difference between 
fluorescent tape and highly reflective tape?  I have my paddle blades painted with 
yellow "fluorescent" paint and then have reflective tape on them, but I am 
unsure what is most visible after dark.
