Mike,

Aside from the Dutch oven, almost all your gear in dry bags will be lighter than water, so it will provide bouyancy.

It may be overkill, but I have float bags in the hatches of my Outer Island just in case of puncture.

(I apologize in advance if any of my advice duplicated Rehd's -- I got an error repeatedly when trying to read his post.)
