Optical bonding technology eliminates internal reflections, delivering vibrant 16-bit colors, sharp 320x240 resolution contrast, and fog-proof performance. Low power draw—typically just 1.6 watts—means it won't strain your batteries during long outings, while LED backlighting adjusts automatically for optimal viewing.
Seamless Integration for Modern Glass Bridge Setups
Designed to complement Raymarine Axiom-series chartplotters, the P70Rs boasts a sleek glass-bridge aesthetic with interchangeable black and gunmetal bezels. Its SeaTalkng and NMEA2000 compatibility ensures plug-and-play connectivity to your existing Raymarine ecosystem, including multifunction displays, instruments, and sensors. No complex bridging needed—simply connect via the included spur cable for instant access to multiple data sources and system-wide dimming.
Built Tough for Marine Life
Engineered for the harsh marine environment, the P70Rs holds an IPX6 waterproof rating, resists corrosion, and includes a protective sun cover. The sculpted rubber keypad provides positive tactile feedback even with wet hands or gloves, while the LightHouse user interface simplifies setup with a quick-start wizard. Choose from leisure, cruising, or performance display formats to match your boating style, all backed by Raymarine's reputation for rugged reliability.
