Teleport several decades into the future and pick up a set of laser rangefinder binoculars from your local sporting goods store.

Nice for a gimmick... but i doubt they have anywhere near the magnification of our FUJI Big Eyes we had on that boat... Can't remember for certain, but i think the were 40x or so...
If the OOD really wants range to a an object or vessel he can just shoot a quick radar range. As for sea kayaks at 12k yards, i don't think radar nor laser bino's will help.
