You only need the white, unless you are going to add an outboard or full rigged sail to your yak. If you are please add images for our amusement.

for the length of your kayak you only need a white one 360 degrees of light

ps don't put the starboard light in your window, you may get knock on the door

I use one of these they can also be used for a rescue strobe. Difficult to get a sense of scale but about 3.5 inches long and they simply clip to PVC pipe/mast or lifejacket. It is a powerful LED with approx 40 hours life. The strobe works for 200 hours. Dont worry you will be dead by then. http://www.tacklebargains.co.uk/cgi-bin/sh...l%23a3072#a3072
