Raymarine Axiom 2 Pro 12 RVM for UK & European Waters
Offshore in a lumpy Channel swell, a touchscreen alone is a liability — and shallow sonar is useless over a 90-metre wreck. The Axiom 2 Pro 12 RVM answers both: HybridTouch keypad-and-touch control you can operate one-handed in rough water, plus 1 kW dual-channel CHIRP and RealVision MAX 3D sonar that keeps marking fish where lesser modules go blank.
Key Features & On-the-Water Benefits
- 12″ IPS HybridTouch display with rotary controller: Full touchscreen speed in the marina, positive keypad control when you’re being thrown around offshore — no mis-taps, no lost chart position.
- 1 kW dual-channel CHIRP sonar: Serious transmit power for deep-water wrecking and reef fishing — clear individual returns from cod and pollack tight to structure at depths where 600 W units merge everything together.
- RealVision MAX 3D (DownVision, SideVision, RealVision 3D): Build a gyro-stabilised 3D picture of wrecks, banks and ledges so you understand exactly how fish relate to structure before your first drop.
- Six-core processor running LightHouse 4: Instant chart redraws and smooth split-screen sonar/chart/radar pages, even with radar and cameras networked in.
- Full MFD networking (radar, autopilot, thermal, video): One glass bridge that grows with your boat — add Quantum radar or an Evolution autopilot later without changing displays.
- NMEA 2000 & RayNet Ethernet: Straightforward integration with existing instruments, engines and AIS on refits as well as new builds.
UK & European Compatibility & Mapping
The Axiom 2 Pro runs Raymarine’s LightHouse Charts with full UK, Ireland and European coverage built from official hydrographic sources — and it’s equally at home with Navionics+ or C-MAP cards if you already own them, which makes it one of the most chart-flexible MFDs you can fit. Premium LightHouse subscriptions add aerial overlays and detailed harbour plans for UK and Continental marinas. Units are standard 12/24 V DC compatible, supplied with trunnion and surface-mount options, and Raymarine’s UK-based heritage means service and support are genuinely local.
