Seeking advice to secure a GPS to a kayak deck

Greg,
I used a waterproof pouch casing with a clear front; that casing has a strap
that can be looped through the deck lines in front of the cockpit. That is
a superior setup because it requires no drilling of your kayak, and doesn't
rely on the water-resistance of the GPS unit should you roll.
I use the same set-up. It's not a good idea to "dedicate" a mounting
location to any individual device. Freedom to re-configure your
lashings is way more important than that gps. The gps unit will even
work through the boat's deck so if you want a track log, or a backup
to your compass and map, you don't even have to have the thing out on
the deck.
