Fish finders...I use an old Eagle 320*320 on my Scadden Renegade.
It works great, but is no longer in production. For my small aluminum boat, I have a Lowrance Fish Elite Pro 480*480. It's black and white but shows the bottom contour and the fish and it is in your price range (about $160). I also have a Fishin' Buddy fish finder, but don't like it much. It doesn't compare with the fish finders mentioned above.
Can't comment on a motor. I use a 5 HP gas motor on my 12' aluminum boat, and a 55 pound thrust MinnKota on my 9' aluminum boat. But I like to keep my Renegade real simple...strap on anchor mount and rod holder...and I just row it. Love to fish this way
