Raymarine LightHouse Chart North America Product Description
Explore North America's Waterways with Precision
Whether you're cruising the sun-drenched coasts of Florida, tackling the rugged shores of Alaska, or venturing into the intricate channels of the Great Lakes, Raymarine LightHouse Charts North America deliver the detail and reliability every boater demands. These charts go beyond basic mapping by fusing official hydrographic data with intuitive design, helping you navigate confidently from bustling marinas to remote anchorages. Imagine plotting a course through the Bahamas' vibrant reefs or the St. Lawrence River's historic locks—every turn backed by sharp, trustworthy visuals that prioritize safety and adventure.
What sets these charts apart is their focus on real-world usability. Boaters report fewer second-guesses at unfamiliar junctions, thanks to enhanced depth contours and hazard shading that pop against customizable backgrounds. It's not just about getting from point A to B; it's about enjoying the journey with tools that adapt to your style, light conditions, and preferences.
Comprehensive Coverage Tailored for Adventurers
Spanning the contiguous United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and the Bahamas, these charts capture thousands of inland lakes, rivers, and reservoirs perfect for fishing trips or family outings. Head north, and you'll find detailed renderings of British Columbia's fjords, Newfoundland's dramatic cliffs, Nova Scotia's iconic lighthouses, Prince Edward Island's sandy bays, and New Brunswick's tidal estuaries. The Great Lakes shine with full inland coverage, including critical shipping lanes and recreational hotspots.
For coastal explorers, expect high-resolution coastlines with marina layouts, buoys, and wrecks marked clearly. Inland enthusiasts get topo-style shading on lakes like the Finger Lakes or the Chain of Lakes in Minnesota, making it easier to spot drop-offs for trophy bass or walleye. This breadth ensures no matter your vessel—a center console, sailboat, or houseboat—you're covered from the Everglades to the Inside Passage.
Superior Readability Day or Night
LightHouse Charts transform complex hydrographic data into effortlessly readable displays. Four tailored color palettes—daylight bright, dusk subtle, night vision red, and high-contrast black—let you switch seamlessly as conditions change. No more squinting at faded lines during golden hour or battling glare on sunny decks.
Symbol controls empower you to declutter the screen: toggle wrecks, tides, or lights on or off, emphasizing what's relevant to your trip. Anglers might highlight fish havens; cruisers could prioritize anchorages. This flexibility turns your chartplotter into a personal command center, reducing cognitive load when it matters most.

Boaters who subscribe rave about the confidence boost from satellite views aligning perfectly with chart data, helping verify off-chart shallows or crowded moorings before committing.
Pro Tips for Peak Performance
To maximize these charts, pair them with Raymarine Axiom displays running the latest LightHouse Fremantle 3 OS—essential for full functionality. Update your firmware before heading out to unlock smooth rendering and quick pans. For multi-device setups, charts sync effortlessly across networked plotters, keeping the helm and flybridge in harmony.
Practice customizing palettes during daylight trials; many find the night red palette a game-changer for preserving night vision. Combine with AIS overlays for traffic awareness, and use autorouting to shave hours off passages through busy inlets like Chesapeake Bay. Safety first: always cross-reference with active notices to mariners for dynamic changes like construction zones.
