I have mounted on the dash of my 4x4 (I "dive" in the woods) a Radio
Shack gooseneck style cellphone holder that has adjustable jaws. I feel
a GPS in a freezer-weight Ziploc bag would be well-protected against all
but lengthy immersion.

I bought a waterproof pouch for my GPS today. It only slightly decreases
the signal strength and you can operate all the functions through the bag.
It works great except that you have to put down the paddle to make any
adjustments to the unit. With the trades blowing like they were today, that
means you'll be rolling in the troughs before you get the thing up to
eyeball level. I'll stop by the kama'aina Radio Shack and look for this
"gooseneck style cellphone holder that has adjustable jaws." Perhaps it'll
do the job and I can rivet it on to the kayak.

Thanks
