Can you use a kayak in Crater Lake, Oregon?

No, from what I can tell..no.

Edit..
Reminders and Regulations (about diving..but read the boat and raft part)

You must carry out everything that you carried in. Minimum impact visiting is a requirement.
***Private boats and rafts are not allowed on the lake. Only interpretive boat tours and research vessels are permitted. Crater Lake is preserved as a scenic and scientific wonder, not as a recreational lake.
Because the water is quite cold (temperatures below the surface are consistently in the upper 30′s), a good quality, 0.25-inch full wet suit or a dry suit is required.
Diving is prohibited within 100 feet of the Cleetwood Cove dock and mooring facilities, and within 100 feet of the Wizard Island dock.
No solo diving is permitted under any circumstances. A “diver down” flag is required.
No collecting of rocks, plants, or other features is permitted. No spearfishing is permitted.
The closest full decompression chamber is in Seattle, Washington, located 500 miles north of the park.
All divers must be certified NAUI, PADI, or similar-type divers and must bring proof of certification with them.
Air refills are not available in the park. The closest facilities for this are dive shops in Klamath Falls, Medford, Phoenix, and Grants Pass.
