Garmin is top shelf for GPS, but their fishfinders are not quite there yet. Furuno or Ray is the way to go for that

I dont think Furuno has a low end combo unit.
If you want a combo unit, the Raymarine A 57 is reasonable, but you need to add the sounder module. So it also gets pricey.

Lowrance are pretty good too, a guy I charter with has one and it is sweet. But it is the higher end unit and big $$$...

Hope that helps
Good luck with whatever you get.
