Raymarine Alpha 9 Performance Display Product Description

Imagine glancing up at your mast-mounted display from the helm, even through polarized sunglasses, and instantly seeing optimized wind angles, boat speed, and layline data that sharpens your racing edge. The Raymarine Alpha 9 transforms raw sailing data into actionable insights, helping competitive sailors and performance cruisers push their boats to the limit. This 9-inch touchscreen powerhouse pairs seamlessly with your Axiom chartplotter network, delivering customizable dashboards for wind, navigation, and engine performance—all without cluttering your deck with extra cables.

Standout Features for Serious Sailors

Built for the demands of offshore racing and long-haul cruising, the Alpha 9 combines cutting-edge display tech with sailing-specific tools. Its intuitive interface lets you swap widgets on the fly, from polar performance diagrams to real-time engine diagnostics.

Sunglass-Friendly Visibility: Extra-wide viewing angles and 1500 nits brightness ensure crisp readability from any angle, day or night, even under harsh sunlight.
HydroTough Nano-Coating: Repels water, salt spray, and oils, keeping the responsive touchscreen reliable in pounding seas or sudden squalls.
Scalable Networking: Daisy-chain up to four units with a single power/data cable run, simplifying mast wiring and reducing points of failure.
SailPoint Mode: Visual target wind angles guide you to peak Velocity Made Good (VMG) upwind or downwind, perfect for tight tacks or gybes in fleet racing.
Dynamic Wind Displays: Auto-zooms to the most relevant wind data, keeping your focus on tactics rather than scrolling.
Auto-Dimming and Lockable Touch: Integrated light sensor adjusts brightness, while remote control from Axiom prevents accidental changes mid-maneuver.

Seamless Axiom Integration for Total Boat Awareness

Connect via a simple RayNet Ethernet cable to your Axiom chartplotter (running Lighthouse 4.5 or later), and unlock a wealth of data from transducers, NMEA 2000, and SeaTalk NG devices. Customize Alpha 9 as your central hub for:

Laylines, start timers, and heading overlays for race starts.
Engine RPM, fuel flow, and tank levels for efficient motoring legs.
Graphical wind shifts and true wind speed for strategic routing.

This setup turns your boat into a data-driven machine, where every crew member—from skipper to grinder—stays informed without huddling around the plotter.

Real-World Performance on the Water

For J/24 racers tweaking starts or offshore sailors plotting great-circle routes, the Alpha 9's landscape or portrait mounting shines. Mount it high on the mast for trimmers or at the helm for tacticians. In heavy weather, its IPX6/IPX7 waterproofing and extreme temperature tolerance (-25°C to +55°C) keep it operational when lesser displays fog or fail.

Sailors report shaving seconds off tacks thanks to SailPoint's visual cues, while cruisers appreciate the clutter-free engine monitoring during passages. It's not just a screen—it's your competitive advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Raymarine Alpha 9 be used without an Axiom chartplotter?

No, the Alpha 9 requires connection to an Axiom chartplotter on the RayNet network (Lighthouse 4.5 or later) to access data and function fully.

Is the Alpha 9 display visible through polarized sunglasses?

Yes, its polarized sunglass-friendly IPS panel with wide viewing angles ensures clear visibility from mast or remote positions.

How many Alpha 9 displays can I daisy-chain together?

Up to four Alpha displays can be daisy-chained using the single power and data cable system for simplified installation.

What is SailPoint mode and how does it help?

SailPoint provides a visual target wind angle reference, helping you achieve maximum VMG upwind or downwind for better racing performance.

Does the touchscreen work when wet?

Absolutely, the HydroTough nano-coating repels water and oils, maintaining reliable touch response in marine conditions.

Can I mount the Alpha 9 in landscape or portrait orientation?

Yes, it supports both landscape and portrait mounting for flexible helm or mast placement.

What data sources does it integrate with?

Via Axiom, it pulls from transducers, NMEA 2000, and SeaTalk NG for sailing, navigation, and engine data.

Alpha 9 Performance Display

Alpha Performance Displays are the most versatile marine data displays. High-bright touchscreen instruments with wide view angles offer excellent visibility from anywhere onboard. Alpha's extensive data dashboard options and widgets make critical sailing, navigation, and engine data easy to interpret at a glance.

Alpha & Axiom Systems

Alpha Performance Displays are companion instruments for Raymarine Axiom chartplotters. A simple RayNet Ethernet cable between Axiom and the Alpha display gives Alpha access to Axiom's connected transducers and NMEA2000/SeaTalk NG devices.

Once paired with an Axiom network, users can customize and configure your Alpha display into a powerful performance sailing, navigation, and engine data instrument.
