It's a fast, bright navigation display ready to run out of the box, ideal for helms that run sonar as a networked source or don't need built-in sonar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Raymarine Axiom 2 12 with North America charts is the navigation-focused member of the Axiom 2 family, and it comes ready to go. It's a 12-inch multifunction display that pairs a bright, fast touchscreen with LightHouse North America charts preloaded, so you can launch and navigate the day it's installed. This is the chartplotter configuration, so it focuses on navigation, charts, radar, and networking rather than built-in sonar. If you run sonar from a separate networked source, or you simply don't need it at this display, this gives you the full fast platform without paying for sonar hardware you won't use here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe screen is a 12-inch touchscreen at WXGA 1280 by 800 resolution with a very bright 1800 nit display, so it stays clearly readable in direct sun, which is exactly when helm screens usually wash out. Behind it is a 6-core processor with 64 GB of solid-state storage, and that muscle is what makes the Axiom 2 feel quick, charts redraw fast and switching between apps and screens happens without lag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNavigation comes ready. This model has LightHouse North America charts preloaded, so there's no chart card to buy before your first trip, you have detailed cartography for the region from the moment it powers on. Combined with the fast processor and the bright screen, planning and following a route is quick and easy to read at a glance, which is what you want out of a dedicated navigation display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven though it doesn't have sonar built in, it's a full-featured helm hub. It supports networked sonar over Ethernet or NMEA 2000, so you can bring fishfinder capability to this display from a separate sonar module whenever you want it. It runs the LightHouse operating system, supports gigabit Ethernet networking for radar and additional displays, and connects over NMEA 2000 for engine data, sensors, and instruments, plus Wi-Fi for app connectivity and updates. That makes it a capable navigation hub you can grow into a larger system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's built for the marine environment, carrying IPx6 and IPx7 water ratings so it shrugs off spray, washdowns, and brief submersion. It runs on an 8 to 16 volt DC range with a 7 amp fuse rating. Physically it measures about 12.36 inches wide, 8.93 inches high, and 7.01 inches deep, and it supports the standard mounting options, so plan your helm space accordingly. In the box you get the display unit, mounting hardware, power, video, and NMEA cabling, and documentation, with a transducer not included since this is the chartplotter model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's worth adding a note on the LightHouse experience day to day. The interface is designed around fast, app-style operation, so laying out the exact combination of chart, data, and radar you want on screen is quick, and your setup is there waiting the next time you power up. Because this is a navigation-focused display with charts already loaded, it's genuinely plug-and-go, ideal as a dedicated chart station on a boat that keeps sonar elsewhere. Over a season you build a helm that works the way you think, and the fast processor means it never makes you wait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a practical note, its bright screen and preloaded charts make it an easy display to hand to a less-experienced crew member, since the essentials are right there and readable without setup. That approachability, combined with room to grow into radar and networked sonar, makes it a display that suits a wide range of boaters and boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Boaters who want a fast, bright 12-inch navigation display with North America charts already loaded and don't need built-in sonar at this screen, whether because sonar runs from a dedicated networked module or lives on another display. If navigation and networking are the priority and you want it ready to run out of the box, the Axiom 2 12 with North America charts is the choice. If you want built-in RealVision 3D sonar in this display, the Axiom 2 12 RV adds it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-inch touchscreen, WXGA 1280 x 800, very bright 1800 nits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightHouse North America charts preloaded, ready out of the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-core processor with 64 GB solid-state storage for fast operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNetworked sonar ready over Ethernet or NMEA 2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightHouse operating system with gigabit Ethernet networking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNMEA 2000 for engine data and sensors, plus Wi-Fi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIPx6 and IPx7 water ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 to 16 V DC operating range, 7 A fuse rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Raymarine reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eDoes it have built-in sonar?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eNo. This is the chartplotter configuration without built-in sonar.
