Wow - that's about half the size of the one I saw.  I'm not sure if 
there was any waterproof rating associated with the one I saw, but it 
was being sold to sailors.  It did look like a reasonably rugged 
plastic case (ABS, I think).  If small enough, I guess a non-
waterproof unit could be put into a Peli-box.  Suitable for pool 
sessions and beach-oriented instruction sessions, but way too much 
baggage for an extended kayak trip.

PS - I was camping with a bunch of kayakers last weekend, one of whom 
had a black Peli-box for his camera.  With the stickers on it, I 
thought it was a car battery with handle :-)
