These days it seems that you don't even need a motor. There are plenty of idiots out there on unregistered vessels.

As a kayaker and owner of a Whaler, I think i go out of my way to be courteous to my fellow kayakers,if i don't call me on it. But i agree, there are a large amount of idiots on the water. Case in point, I was fishing last month, in the Bay in my Whaler in the area of the Convention center. Out of the blue, two Wave runners ( rentals it seemed) blasted by. One sees me pulling in a bass, turns around, and barrels right up to my boat, " Sir, can i take a picture?", but doesn't stop and runs into my boat. Apologizes, backs up, then hits me again. Doesn't know backwards from forwards. He never got to take the picture because i threw a few choice words his way. He could not figure out why i was mad. The kicker was that as he left the last time, he gunned it and threw a big rooster tail on me and my boat. Idiots drive many choices of vehicles
