To be fair mate we do carry all the safety gear and most of us have a paddle leash so you can't loose a paddle, also carry a spare just in case.

Don't know the full story but to label us fools is a bit harsh, like Jeff 01 kayak has pointed out some go out on boats with no training or safety gear
 
We seen the RFA chopper 9 miles out searching the area off Blyth today, it was up for over an hour so not sure what was going on there.
 
yeah its crazy isnt it.
safer in boat though.
Depends on a lot of factors,only as safe as you make it, majority of water users are aware of the risks and take precautions to minimise them however as we all know sh$t still happens and we are lucky to have help at hand when needed. ...............Dave.[kayaker/boat angler]
