garmin do good chart plotters and with the sounder some sounders dont read under 2 meters so i guess you want one that will read under 2 meters aswell furuno make good ones maybee look for a second hand one 585 would be good as a sounder but garmin is good for navagation a95sv i think would be ok,or you could run a tablet with navtronics on it would be a cheaper option
