Discover the Power of Precision Navigation On the Water
Imagine gliding across open waters with crystal-clear views of the bottom structure and fish targets, all while plotting flawless routes through intricate coastal areas. The Raymarine Axiom 7 DV delivers exactly that in a compact 7-inch package. This multifunction display (MFD) combines rugged durability with cutting-edge technology, making it a go-to choice for serious boaters, anglers, and coastal explorers who demand reliability without complexity.
Powered by the intuitive LightHouse 3 operating system, it offers fluid touchscreen controls that feel natural from the first touch. Whether you’re chasing trophy fish in shallow bays or navigating busy harbors, its built-in dual-channel sonar and pre-loaded charts provide the edge you need to stay ahead.
Superior Sonar Imaging for Unmatched Fishfinding
At the heart of the Axiom 7 DV is its wide-spectrum CHIRP DownVision sonar. This advanced technology scans across 60 frequencies simultaneously, delivering photo-like images of underwater structures, wrecks, and vegetation. Traditional CHIRP handles fish detection and bottom tracking with pinpoint accuracy, helping you spot schools even in murky conditions.
Boaters often rave about how it reveals hidden drop-offs and ledges that standard sonar misses, turning average outings into productive adventures. Pair it later with a compatible transducer for full potential—it’s ready right out of the box for expansion.
Comprehensive Charting Coverage for North American Waters
Pre-loaded with Navionics+ charts, this unit covers the entire US coastline, Coastal Canada, and over 80,000 inland lakes, ponds, and rivers. Dive into features like SonarChart Live for real-time bathymetric mapping and Dock-to-Dock Autorouting to generate safe, optimized paths around no-go zones.
It’s also versatile with other chart formats from C-MAP or Raymarine’s own LightHouse vector and raster options, ensuring you’re covered from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Anglers appreciate the detailed contour lines (as fine as 0.5 meters) for targeting prime fishing spots.
High-Performance Display Built to Withstand the Elements
The optically bonded all-glass 7-inch WVGA touchscreen (800 x 480 resolution) shines in direct sunlight with vivid colors and sharp contrast. Its IPX6/IPX7 waterproof rating means it laughs off heavy spray, rain, or accidental submersion.
Sleek and buttonless, with swipe-to-power functionality, it fits seamlessly into modern consoles. Dimensions of about 8 inches wide, 5 inches tall, and 3 inches deep make it ideal for space-conscious vessels like center consoles or kayaks.
Seamless Connectivity and Endless Expansion
Axiom 7 DV grows with your needs. Built-in 10Hz GPS/GLONASS receiver ensures smooth tracking, while Wi-Fi and Bluetooth link to Raymarine apps on your phone or tablet for remote control, waypoint sharing, and live updates.
Network via RayNet Ethernet or NMEA2000 to add Quantum radar for fog-piercing detection, FLIR thermal cameras for night ops, Evolution autopilots, IP cameras, instruments, or even marine audio systems. It’s a hub that transforms your boat into a smart command center.
Flexible Mounting for Any Boat Setup
Choose from trunnion (bracket), flush, surface, or rear mounting to match your helm. The included kits make setup straightforward—secure it with thumbscrews or threaded studs for vibration-free operation even at high speeds.
Pro tip: Opt for flush mounting on open boats for a streamlined look, or bracket for easy adjustments while trailering. Its quad-core processor handles multitasking without lag, from radar overlays to split-screen sonar and charts.
