Default Kayakers stir up waterways (Longer)

This past weekend an old couple was having a great time slowly paddling
through an extremely busy pass. Boats were lining up behind them and
in front of them and they were completely oblivious to the problem they
were creating. People were blowing horns, yelling and they couldn't
have cared less. It was dead low tide and the channel was very narrow.
All they had to do was move 15 feet left or right and everyone would
have been fine. It's horrible that people's safety and time are
jeopardized because these morons are let loose on the waterways.


Can busy boat traffic passing kayaks cause a hazard ?
-Would the boaters see/notice the kayakers in busy traffic?
-Was there a sign/regulation prohibiting the creation of waves?
-A speed limit?
