How about a knee tube. http://www.knoydart.co.uk/display_access.php?category=8&access=5&id=243 Or an underdeck bag. http://www.rutabaga.com/product.asp?pid=1001549 The above websites were the first ones I googled with decent pictures of each possible solution. I use a hydration bladder in a sleeve on my pfd. For longer jaunts I lash a second hydration bladder to the deck. Being sure to lash it tight as I don't want it to shift. I usually paddle a skinny sit on top (surf ski) there is no internal storage on my boat.
