PS. What would you recommend in the $200-$250 range?

It's really hard to go wrong with an ICOM radio. They are right up
there with Furuno for reliable equipment in my book.

I'm leaning towards the Icom IC-M422 VHF Marine Transceiver. I can't see
any big advantages offered by the more expensive models, given that this
will not be an 'off shore' boat!
