Anyway, wonder if/how kayak color factors in.
Since you asked...

I also broke down the attacks by kayak color. They span the spectrum. I'm sticking with brighter colors such as orange and yellow. Boaters are the greater danger.

Lame chart attached below. If sharks are color blind as one researcher discovered (I'm not sure about great whites), then contrast could be the crux of the matter. If that's the case and we're really looking at brighter kayaks vs. darker the chart could be read as 7 light vs. 4 dark, although I'm not sure of the actual shade of some of those reported colors.

The story in case you want to read it: http://www.kayakfishmag.com/features...olor-question/
