I am planning to do this trip in the fall of 2012. As this is not a generic travel question, I am hoping that one of the Travel Helpers for Ukraine can get me in contact with locals who would have some knowledge that would help with this trip.
LOL... Only 1 response after 2 weeks and it was probably spam.....
Camping is legal in Ukraine unless its national park or something. It should be displayed by some sort of signs "Палити заборонено" "Не розводити вогонь" "Кемпiнг заборонено" "Запрещено разводить костер". Only the Khortitsa island is the one famous island in Dniper where you can not camp.
Nothing is gonna heppen to you even if you trespass someone's property, we are polite nation, especially to the foreigners. But i strongly recommend to have someone with you who is a native Ukrainian.
I can not say a thing of water currents, but the only thing i know is there are NO TIDES in Black Sea, its situated not in the part of Moon's influence.
I could help you with getting on with this issue, send me a PM, i check it sometimes or better visit my website -snip- and send me an email (i'm not advertising my website, i just dont want to post my email as many spammers will start sending me adverts)
Best Regards, Konstantin.
P.S.: I wonder how all those people posting offers of assistance in Ukraine simply advertising their websites do not bother even to give a simple advice. How poor we become when money takeover the brain. Shame on you, colleagues!

Hi. Was wondering if you ever did this trip. I have been thinking about the same idea for summer 2014. I've been in Ukraine for a few years, love it here and also love kayaking. Would be nice to hear from you or anyone else that can add. Thanks.
Sadly, this is still on my list. Personal life has interfered with my best laid plans. Hoping for Fall of 2014 now. I have three options in mind... all about 1000km
Dniper / as above
Wisla / Krackow to Gdansk
or
Danube (any 1000 km section, but prob near the top of river)
