The video was edited with iMovie on an iPad. You can adjust the volume of the video clip if necessary. I used the default sound settings.

I would use the waterproof case for the kayak and a Zoom H1 with lapel microphone to record the sound, then add the sound to the video when the editing takes place. When you start shooting, clap your hands and that will provide a point to sync the audio with the video. The clap will show up in the GoPro audio track. Once you get them synced, turn off the audio track from GoPro.

I would give the waterproof case a try by itself first because you may be close enough for it to work. If it does not work, you can always add background music to the video.
Thanks I was wondering because the sound was muffled, maybe it was just the work computer. I don't use the waterproof housing on the kayak either, they seem to fog up, and audio is horrible. I just risk it. I have over 70G of video from Gulf Trips catching Spade Fish, Kings, Mahi Mahi and many other pelagic fish to Stripers, and Browns on the Holston. I just haven't found the time to do any editing and when I do I'm just not happy with it. I really don't like the Go Pro video editing software.

Thanks for sharing
