Most of us sailing out of the city refer to kayaks as "speed bumps".

I can be motoring in my dinghy in the same direction as a pack of them and they will suddenly, and sharply, veer directly across my bow without any warning, or even a slight turn of their head. I'm quite sure they could hear me coming if they were even slightly paying attention. I have come very close to running them over through no fault of my own. They tend to be in groups, so if one cuts in front of me, I may have to run over their friends to avoid them. This is not a rare occurrence. Sooner or later, one of these idiots will be run over, and then everyone will have a seizure over it, and start proposing all sorts of bad laws. Bad for US.
