i could answer some of this. I would be very interested in some sort of device that i could load maps on. I agree w kayaker that we are not regulated to carry much of anything. Just a whistle and a pfd. And if out at nite we must have a light that can be seen by 360 degrees. Thats here in pennsylvania. I dont have much need for a radio during my multi day trips down the river. But a gps display that i could load all the water trail info would be great. I carry a drybox so waterproof isnt a huge issue. But if i knew where the rough water is. Where the campsites are. Where the boat launches are. That would be valueable info. And i may pay 300 for it.
