You don't lose your backpack in the water, you drop it yourself, automatically to avoid drowning. You only drop it yourself if you're swimming for too long. Swimming with full gear drains your stamina in seconds. If you start swimming without any stamina, you drop your junk instantly. There wasn't a well nearby the dam lol. Nothing was nearby. I wasn't even swimming for that long, honestly. Went in for secs and bam, it just drops. I'd been slowly walking through the water until that point too.
Anyways as soon as you switch to swimming ou should fill your bottles and return to shore. IF you lose it as soon as you switch to swimming, you can move close to your dropped gear, kneel uder water and with a little patience, get everything back. Droping backpack and other stuff in water is not a bug and it is implemented in ArmA 2. If you don't want to lose your gear, wait until you are fully rested and then you can jump into the water to fill you bottle.
It's a feature that's part of the game and it CAN'T be removed. It's been a feature since ArmA. Your carrying over 50 pounds of gear. Yeah, let's swim with all that weight. If the frequency of you losing your backpack could be adjusted, that would be an improvement too. Also to it's quite stupid that people say you drop it because the gear is too heavy Problem is you have to start swimming before you can fill the water bottles.
If possible due to arma limitations you should just be able to crouch at the end of a lake and fill the bottle. Well whatever, if you prefere to jump into a lake after sprinting for the last 60 seconds go ahead and drop your gear to the bottom. If you don't like to lose all your gear, take a moment to rest before you jump in. If you drop your backpack, you still risk it dissapearing.
Getting water a the risk of your gear magically vanishing is all part of the survival! The backpack doesn't disappear, but if you drop it too close to the water or at some bad ground it can get teleported to some other place in the neighborhood.
As with spawning in the ocean have you changed your mission. If you are using essv3 and infistar, ive posted a fix for this which just removes infistars check for ai drivers so that might also work for you Ahh that makes sense. Guess its a bad habit to shut down the server while still ingame lol Did this so i didnt have to restart arma 2 everytime i wanted to test a script.

Yet I never stumbled upon a canteen. Where should I look, is there specific areas where they spawn with higher chance?

Well, I haven't ever found one either, but if you go to Electro or Cherno, you can often find an empty water bottle lying around. After you find that, fill it with water from a pond or drinking well. One water bottle will replenish your whole hydration. You can also drink directly from drinking wells with no ill effects, and from ponds with a chance of infection so only do that if you have no choice.
There are also sodas and full water bottles, as well as uGotRektM8's suggestion of filling empty water bottles. Hope this helps.
