Since its launch at the Miami International Boat Show in February 2017, Raymarine's game-changing Axiom units with RealVision 3D technology have been shaking up the marine electronics industry.

The introduction of Axiom Pro at ICAST 2017 did much to further the excitement, offering anglers and boaters a built-in 1kW offshore CHIRP sonar and Raymarine's fast and intuitive HybridTouch™ user experience. Blazing quad-core performance and Lighthouse 3 operating system represent the most advanced navigational and fish-finding multifunction displays on the water.

As you'll see in the video, Raymarine RealVision 3D provides users a unique look at what's below the waterline. Revealing structure, cover, fish, and forage in the three-dimensional space, RealVision 3D is the closest thing to draining a lake and walking around... all without the extra expense and hassle of a black box or additional transducer.

Watch as Raymarine's Jim McGowan demonstrates how Raymarine's leading-edge sonar technologies clearly define structure and fish—and how running SideVision split-screen view in tandem can lead to even more precise fish-finding and boat positioning.

Prices for the Raymarine Axiom MFD Series range from $1,199 inc GST. Axiom Pro models start at $3,699 inc GST and are available from Raymarine's authorised dealer network.
