Unqualified to do any more, I can at least offer three potential topic 
headings.

(i): Keeping 'good' cameras dry, and yet accessible, on the water

(ii): Uses, and limitations, of various "waterproof" cameras

OK, I thought I had a "(iii)", but I guess I don't. Except maybe to 
say something about looking for new and interesting shots. One of my 
friends "stole" a photo from the web for her screensaver. Its a shot 
of a kayak crashing through waves on the way out from the beach on a 
grey, overcast day. She says the shot just epitomizes the spirit of 
kayaking to her, and it lifts her spirits on a winter day at the office.
