I've been very happy with a small Lowrance M68c color fishfinder/plotter. Compact and more features than any human can ever use. Mounted on helm dash. Internal antenna works fine and I use "shoot thru hull" transducer. Paid $399 for it years ago.
I don't see it in West Marine catalog this year but "Elite-4" model looks like a replacement. $370 You can get a greyscale version for $250. Whatever you get, I suggest you get something designed to be mounted in a boat.

LOL talk about overkill. I have a Raymarine Radar w/CP and GPS built in, Plus I have a Garmin that I love... Old, funky, but still works beautifully... and lastly, I have an iPhone. But when all is said and done, make sure you have a good compass with you also.

A freind of mine has an older pacemaker that has an enclosed cabin, it cruises at about 9 knots, he has a program for his laptop that uses an external gps antenna that plugs into his laptop that runs the equivalent of the navionics platinum with all teh detail and google earth images, he only paid about $350 for the whole set up(not counting the laptop), if you have a slow boat with an enclosed cabin thats not going to get bounced around a lot, this is the way to go
