Sonar/GPS question - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Our second garmin fishfinder went to crap over the weekend, so it's time to switch brands. I'm not disappointed w/ the fishfinder itself, but the connection
wasn't water-resistant enough. It only lasted about 12 trips, or around 6 months. Around 1/3 of them were freshwater trips too. I'm also considering buying a GPS. Is a GPS worth the money in regards to the impact it makes on your fishing? I may want to get a GPS/sonar combo. Also, which brand/model of sonar is the most durable? Thanks in advance for any help.
