If you are going to do the timer route, the one from OEX is the best on the market. There are a few other rotary timers, but none will withstand the demand that will be placed on it in the kayak environment. The one from OEX is completely enclosed in rubber, with no moving parts- so it has stood the test of time.
If you wanted to go another route, have you considered going to a 6V system? Use the same 12V pump, but only run it off a 6V battery. It will run at about 1/2 the speed, and it virtually eliminated the need for a timer. It is also very quiet (you won't hear it), and it runs all day. You can get the 6V batteries and chargers from OEX as well. For those that have switched over to a 6v system, I don't think you will find a single one that would go back to the 12V side.
