First-Class Features of the Raymarine Axiom Range

The award-winning Raymarine Axiom range revolutionises recreational marine navigation with its multifunctional display and powerful processing. All Axiom units come standard with surface and trunnion mounting kits and hardware, data cables, and installation instructions. Here are some of the best features of the Raymarine Axiom 7-, 9-, and 12-inch models.

• LightHouse 3 operating system. The Axiom range uses a high-performance quad-core processor engineered for quick charting with minimal lag. This operating system integrates with Raymarine’s proprietary LightHouse Charts, created from official hydrographic sources for superior quality navigation and mapping capabilities.
• User-friendly interface. Axiom’s button-free, touchscreen interface makes it easy and enjoyable to use onboard. The LCD screen displays your choice of navigational apps in vibrant colours with adjustable brightness levels for evolving weather conditions at sea. The attractive, streamlined design supports single, dual, or multi-screen viewing, and the Raymarine Axiom 12 offers the largest display for an immersive experience.
• Powerful navigation software. The Axiom range features high-performance sonar technology to help you navigate in open waters or near the shore. Raymarine’s innovative DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D sonar support high-definition underwater imagining - ideal for finding fish and detecting structures below the surface.
• Integrate with other accessories. You can integrate your Axiom chart plotter with other Raymarine accessories for a convenient and cohesive onboard electronic system. The Axiom connects seamlessly to FLIR thermal cameras, CHIRP sonar, Quantum radar, and Evolution autopilot. The range also comes with standard wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity for smartphones and tablets.

The Raymarine Axiom vs Axiom Pro vs Axiom+

Raymarine launched the original Axiom in 2017 and has since upgraded its offering to include two new models with improved functionality. If you’re wondering which Axiom is best for your boat, take a look at our summarised comparison below:

• The Raymarine Axiom made waves in the marine industry for its innovative navigation technology and sophisticated design. The original Axiom comes with built-in 600w sonar, a microSD card slot, and 4GB of internal memory, run by the LightHouse 3 operating system. The four-channel sonar capabilities include Raymarine’s CHIRP, DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D imagining software.
• The Axiom Pro is the upgraded version of the original Axiom, with an increased internal memory of 16GB, two microSD card slots, and a more powerful 1kW sonar system. The Axiom Pro uses in-plane switching technology (IPS) for an improved display, allowing for greater visibility from all angles even while wearing polarised glasses. This model also offers a HybridTouch interface that includes an ergonomic rotary control.
• The Axiom Plus launched in 2020, bringing new features to the widely-celebrated range. While the sonar capabilities are essentially the same as its predecessors, this model offers upgraded processing power with enhanced hardware. The Axiom+ boasts a HydroTouch nano-coated display for greater touch control and resistance to water and oil. The new super-bright screen is 25 percent brighter than previous models.
