Any suggestions on an android app that shows distance traveled, GPS, stroke rate, etc?

Aloha,
Try "My Tracks", It will show you speed, distance, elevation(not that useful when always at sea level) and i think it can hook up with heart rate monitors.

I do not know how you would record stroke rate unless you videotaped or paddled to a metronome that could be recorded?

The other day I ran into Peter Newton on the lake testing out a new paddling app being developed by REI. It does all the GPS-type stuff: distance, speed, pace, time, etc. AND tracks your stroke rate with the phone's accelerometer. Probably only works in flat water though. You'd also need a waterproof case.
