Protecting Cell Phone on the water
taxid:
I'll be in a kayak btw. Another thing I found essential while on the water in an upright seat kayak: something to take a leak in. A lot easier than getting out of the kayak etc. And this kayak I have is not one you want to stand up in even with the stabilizers I built for it.

I just try not to drop it in the water, so it usually goes in the boat glove compartment as soon as I get on the boat. My phone is waterproof, but that doesn't prevent me from dropping it overboard. If I were a kayaker I would probably get a case that incorporated a lanyard of some sort. Lash it to the boat or your tackle bag or wear around your neck.

Look at the link below I posted Geoff.
The cases are cheap.
My iPhone is reportedly water "resistant".
Here is what Apple says -
"Rated IP68 (maximum depth of 6 metres up to 30 minutes) under IEC standard 60529"
Still, I would feel better if it was in one of those pouches.
I would add a float to the lanyard.
Like they do with boat keys.
Because the phone, or the pouch, do not float.
