I have the same kayak. I'm kinda ghetto with my mount. It's a 1 inch PVC pipe with some pipe insulation around it so it floats. Then I just put a PVC cap on it and used the GoPro tube mount that I already had.

For the price of your gopro, invest in what works. I had a friend with a DIY setup and it failed and cost ohm his gopro- I use Rammounts. Check their website and see the different options they provide. Rammounts.com
