At night there are navigation and running lights, and SOLAS tape, to consider.  Maybe a radar reflector.  Anything else?

In daylight there are kayak flags, outerwear in safety orange.  Anything else?  Other colors?

When efforts at visibility fail, there are last resort sound signals: whistles, air horns, etc.  Anything else?

Thanks for your thoughts.
