Oh, and in case you were curious which color catches more fish, it's the yellow
ones. 

I thought that was color to attract the sharks.  :o

More likely its because they've sold more yellow yaks than any other color. And thats not just Hobie either. Somebody from Norcal did an impromptu study on that not long after the last attack  down there. You'd have to check their site for the details.

Yum yum yellow....... I believe a study by the navy is where that came from. Iirc, they were testing colors of survival suits, yellow got the most attn from sharks, followed by red.

A shark is still a fish. Back to my original point. Yellow ones catch more fish. :p

Next year, let's start a new teams tourney.  Sort people by their boat color.  I'll bet $10 that whiteish grey wins.
I would much rather be up a creek without a paddle than down one.

I bet 10 bucks that it doesn't matter. I have a bright red Hobie and a bright yellow OK T13 and they both catch plenty of fish.

Then you are a traitor to your boat color team and will be made to walk the plank!

Where is the Jade? Pirates, man hugs, and game cube is usually plenty to get him out or the bucket.

I still maintain that the white/grey team will win.
