Thoughts?
Create a new layer that is completely filled with black.
Fill the current selection with white. You should now have a B&W picture, with the land white and the water black.

With the land still selected, save the selection as a channel.

Select None.

Duplicate the B&W layer.

Hope that clarifies things.
