Interestingly, the article mentions several times that kayakers and SUPers must yield right of way to other vessels. I think this may be the part they start enforcing.

Might get interesting, as a couple times the wife and I have been out in yaks, she's been nearly chased by someone in a rental sailboat. No matter which way he paddled to get out of the way, they course corrected and continued straight at her, missing her by only a couple feet. If they did hit her, it looks like she'd get the ticket for "not yielding right of way".
