No flag, no pfd. Yep boatie should have seen him, but yakker wasn't improving his odds of being seen or surviving a collision. Horns no use over a full throttle outboard.

You have a flag and boats see you a mile away and so know there is a kayak in the area. Too late when they are right on top of you.

Looks like he had pontoons. He had a horn and stood up. The boat was an arsehole. I see the same S#!^ every day when I ride to work, people who believe they have more right than anyone else to be there
