Doug,

It might be worthwhile to take a look at the Canon A570 IS and similar 
Canon IS cameras.  Image stabilization is really nice to have when shooting 
images from a kayak cockpit.  The "A" series is compact and lightweight, 
compared to Canon's "S" series of IS cameras.

I own an S1 IS (3 Mpx) and an A570 IS (7 Mpx).  The A570 rides on deck in a 
microdrybox; the S1 stays at home; some of your Victoria-area compadres use 
the S1 inside a full-function dry case Canon sells for it and swear by it, 
despite the small number of pixels per image.
