There's no river routing in the API. I guess there's not much call for 
aquatic SatNav. The routing database is created by companies working 
with SatNav devices.

For wide rivers, do store the data as polygons, not a pair of polylines. 
Code exists for determining if a click is inside a polygon [Google 
clickable polygons, and EPoly.Contains()].

Rather than drawing both banks for narrow rivers you might consider 
doing what Google do with roads. Record only the centre line, and snap 
the user clicks to that line. That saves half the data entry for narrow 
rivers. Or draw the centre line, then fatten it into a thin polygon and 
treat it like a wide river.
