Raymarine vs Garmin

Okay, it looks like I will be keeping Chloe (Freedom 38) for a while, trying to rid myself of boatlust, and remembering how much I love her.
Want to update the electronics. In consideration are the Raymarine c80 (incredible price for bundle- 2K with radome, gps and charts). vs. Garmin 4210, 4280, or 5208. Any thoughts?
Any other companies you would consider?
It will probably be mounted on top of my existing pod with wind, depth, speed, not in its own pod as there is no angle to my pedestal, so I need to put it on the bracket so I can adjust the angle.
