Got it. I only sea kayak, not white water. And in white water, you don't really need a GPS because your only choice is to go downstream.

I suppose a GPS could be used to tell you how far you are from the next rapids, but in that case you could put it away in your PFD pocket before you get into the rapids.

I have a bit too much stuff on the outside of the boat to try white water.
