I have a Blue Hobie for that reason. Next time you're out take a good look.

I still like the camo colors though. Its a proven theft recovery device.
Interesting!! The article said, "robin-egg-blue."

Not quite the color of my kayak. Never the less, I will definatley send the wife out so I can see for myself. I used white to blend into the whitecaps, if they are breaking that day.

"There are conditions where blue may not work. I was paddling on Lake Tahoe (which is known for its blue colors), and saw a red recreational boat paddling a kilometer or two away. I was surprised to see someone paddling alone. After a while of half keeping an eye on them, I noticed that there was also a blue kayak there that I just couldn't see before."
