Well here is the real deal, the converter that you mention will probably work, the only problem is that a battery acts as a capacitor to keep voltage produced by magnetic induction from a charging unit, such as your converter, level and smooth. I do not think it will hurt your unit from that standpoint, but it could possibly cause interrference issues. The converter will only put out as much current as your GPS unit will require. Your unit has the same internal resistance/impedance whether it is in your boat with a battery and charging system or if it is on the kitchen table with converter. I have ran some units( Not sonar equip) with just a battery charger, never anything with software though I would not try that (ie use a battery charger). I think you are safe and it looks like you have a good converter.
You will be using simulation mode I presume?
