[Paddlewise] Outlaw Paddling, was Kayaks and Visibility Study

For those interested, here's a pointer to the battle over sea kayak
regulations being waged in the Auckland, New Zealand, area.

If the rule-makers win, will I have to become an Outlaw Paddler!

I might start Neptune's Angels, and we'll be BAAAAD. Watch out power-boaters,
the Somali pirates will have nothing on us.

Is this an excuse to pimp my paddle-craft. What is the sea kayaking version of
ape-hangers? I already use a Lendal modified crank, is that I sign I'm on the
way. Do I cut the sleeves off a denim jacket, put a patch on the back, and get
a bandana?

I admit, a group of middle-aged kayakers out cruising doesn't seem as scary as
a mob of hoods on Hogs, but it's a start.
