Hold off until winter, lots of amazing deals on larger units. 

IF you can't do that, look at the Garmin echoMAP 53CV.  It's nearly identical to the Helix 5 you are looking at, you can make your own maps with it just like the Helix.  You can get them for less than what you are looking at spending. 

 

Chirp makes VERY little difference when you are shallow (less than 40ft) water.  If you find an older model in a larger size, DON'T get stuck on it not having chirp...

If a guy could live without mapping the Striker 7 is the way to go. Garmin has good pricing on their units.
