I used batteryspace for my battery they sell everything you need to make your own pack or buy a premade one. Honestly you could make a pack perfect for kayaking for around $100
I would use 2 or 4 of the 3.2v 16ah LifePo4 cells $39 each, pick up a pcm to monitor voltage and a charger. Assemble it in a pelican box and your good to go. Extremely small lightweight battery setup that's going to last a long time. For 12v they do have some nice premade setups like a 12v 20ah with led balancing for $179
Just my $0.02
