Restitution

I will be cruising the Columbia River, from Astoria to the Dalles, Oregon.* Mostly will be within 20 miles of where moored, in Kelso Washington though.*
Would it make sense financially without compromising safety, to stick with my lap top and a program such as OpenCPN or SeaClear?*
Presently I also have 25 year old radar and 20 year old fish finder and VHF.* All do work.*
I need to keep within a budget that allows me to spend $$ where necessary and not where the retail store's tell me to spend it.* Suggestions?*
