I don't compromise with photo gear and take both G10 and 5DII with me. Cameras stay in the cabin until called for. I mainly shoot with wide-angled L series lens and spend the time getting "the shot". Bit of a problem when I'm holding the fish but set the camera to auto and school the deckie or a mate to shoot for you. Camera stays in the cabin whenever seas are rough and spray about. The G10 can be worn around the neck on a strap and under your clothing. Easy to bring it out to pop off those point and shoot opportunities.
