You learn something every day, I though kayaks were likely to spill if you didn't stay balanced or something. I'll admit it is very likely to fall out of a 'regular' boat too. I fish a 14' jon and I park that sucker when the water gets around 50 degrees I just don't feel safe and my family depends on me being around I am looking to get a kayak one day for fishing, as soon as the kid stuff clears out of the garage.
