There will always be people who have no clue about other's lines. I had a tuna on last year and a big yellow hulled boat came past about 60 feet from my boat. It caught the line and it was all I could to to keep my pole. I was spooled and their prop got about 300 yards of 80 lb braid. I hope they made it home.

I have observed many kayaks where I fish. People cut entirely too close to them. I am on the constant look out for small disturbances, bait, birds or other indications of fish, so I see the kayaks from far off. Some people seem oblivious to them. I think the flag pennant is a great idea for visibility. If you are out at night make sure reflective material everywhere.

The sun shines on a dog's ass every once in a while, maybe today is my day!
