Raymarine Axiom 9+RV Multifunction Display - UnBoxing and Product Review

Transcript is auto-generated.

hi everyone

jeff cote here with boating tech talk so

we've got another product

unboxing and what i've got in front of

me is a raymarine

uh axiom axiom nine plus

rv um this is a pretty exciting product

um we've been actually selling quite a

few of them um

here and i wanted to share my excitement

of this product with you today

so first of all remember this is a you

know

there was terms multifunctional display

chart plotter

at the end of the day all the new

devices and you know we're filming here

in 2021

are basically computers that can show

you whatever you want

pretty much from a navigation

perspective on that display

um raymarine again is a pretty big name

in the marine world of course

you can see raymarine on tons of boats

everywhere

and nine inch is a sweet spot in terms

of you know some of us want the bigger

screen but

some of us can't fit it on our boats

right not all of us have the option of

fitting a 12.

and some of us would rather do two nines

or a nine of the helm and a nine at the

lower helm right so it's nothing wrong

with the size this is going to be

have all the same or similar features of

the larger 12-inch green

the difference is that it's compact so

it's going to fit in places where the 12

doesn't

all right um so let's start with opening

this box

and then i'll talk a little bit about

the features all right so again notice

this is an axiom

9 plus rv okay

so again the good news uh with this

from the manufacturers is they're

actually making the box slightly bigger

than what's inside and they're doing

that for crunch zones right because

we receive clearly dozens and dozens of

packages here every day

and not every single package makes it

untouched

so it's nice to see when the

manufacturers sort of anticipate that

and giving a little bit of scrunch zone

because this is

a pretty expensive computer so the first

thing that you notice

is this is obviously running navionics

cartography

right so these are vector charts not

raster charts

and navionics is a big big player and

you even have the chart card right here

that comes with this is a navionics

vector chart that's included with this

product

the next is we're going to actually take

off now this is the display itself okay

the display actually has the cover on

so this is the first time i'm opening it

so we're going to discover this together

so you can see it's in a pretty heavy

duty sort of plastic bag

and i'm going to take the bag and i'm

going to put that away

here's what it looks from the front

and also i'm going to give a little bit

of a shot from

the back just so that you can see all

the different connectors and we're going

to go through every single one of them

as well okay the good news is

these displays are getting narrower

right like i remember when i put my

first chart plotter on my boat in 2006

you know the depth that this display had

was much

deeper right so you needed nav pods or

areas where you were going to mount

there where you had a significant amount

of depth to actually mount the display

all right the next thing that you'll

notice

is let me try to do this so

slowly there's a little bit of a wrap so

that the

the cover doesn't get undone and

voila look at the

gorgeousness of this display full glass

edge to edge i mean this is what

some of us were experiencing the big

mega yachts for years

are now actually available even in nine

inch green

it's a full glass display i mean that's

pretty neat

i have to say this looks very sharp i'm

impressed

you're obviously this is a touch screen

right so you can see there's no buttons

and that's how sometimes you know i have

boaters that say to me jeff i'd rather

have buttons if i can and i say yeah

you're right but sometimes you can't fit

that screen on your boat

we don't all choose what we want we do

what we can on boats

and sometimes a nine inch without

buttons is a really compact way to get

the most

amount of screen size in the opening or

space that you have

so this is actually something definitely

worth considering

all right i'm moving this slowly

you can actually see the different type

of connectors

and i'm going to take a shot from the

top

and we're going to put those here

all right excellent so um

the first one right here the bigger one

right there that tr that plug right here

that i'm using my

thumb on this one here is actually for

the transducer

so this is a not only a chart plotter

but it also has a black box so that it

actually can process

the information coming from my

transducer and this is right here this

is the large one

the next one over is nmea 2000

and power right on this connector you

also have a network connector right here

on my other thumb all the way to the

left and in between the power and ma2000

and the raymarine network cable

you also have an accessory right here so

it's basically

from let's start from left to right it's

going to be

network accessory power enemy 2000

and then basically your transducer okay

all right so with that what i'm going to

do is i'm going to put that a little bit

off to the side

and gently put it down and then we're

going to keep opening the box a little

bit more

all right you'll notice um they even

have an envelope we're not going to open

it but they actually have

a panel gasket so that means that when

you mount the screen

especially when you're flush mounting it

you don't want to make sure that there's

no water coming through that edge so

what they're doing is they're actually

putting a gasket

and they're doing the gasket all around

the edge of the screen here

if you forget that it still works it's

just when it fits rains

outside or dust you're actually going to

have

sort of potentially water dust go behind

so the gasket is

if you have it use it okay it's not

optional i recommend you using it

definitely

the other thing that you're gonna find

in this box is also obviously a little

bit of documentation

uh they went to town on this i i'm

really impressed

so the first thing that you're gonna

notice is this sort of

uh specific uh sort of

raymarine connector that does both power

and

enemy 2000 and you'll see there's one

side

for power right there and then the other

one is

for enemy 2000 right there all right

and you'll notice that if you want to

adapt your enemy 2000

to ctalk ng which is raymarine's

proprietary version

of enemy 2000 you have this little

pigtail adapter which is really sort of

handy

so this would be enemy a2000 and over

here would be

ray talk see talk ng okay right there

so we'll move that away and that's

essential obviously every single of

these

screens are going to have a power

the next thing that you're noticing is

what they're doing

they're even protecting

against any sort of scratches the

trunnion bracket or the u-bracket

the mounting bracket some of us are not

gonna be

i'm gonna stop talking i have to say i'm

i'm i'm loving the way that they're

taking care of making sure that this

bracket comes

scratch free in your hands so this is

a bracket that you would actually mount

the nine inch display on

and some of us are don't have a space to

mount it on our dash we just don't

so this would be a good way to mount it

on top of a dash

right on a chart table sometimes some

people are going to mount it on top of

their instrument gauges

not all of us have a modern boat where

there's a beautiful cutout

to mount a 9-inch or 12-inch display and

a lot of us are actually using these

sort of brackets to mount them

so that bracket is well packed uh from

raymarine

and it looks it looks beefy it's metal

by the way and it feels

it feels good like i have to say all

right

now these little adapters here are

ways and i'll go slowly

again making a little bit of noise but

you know what it's kind of neat that

they're going to that level to protect

everything

these are there's two of those and

they're actually made to

how to actually affix the chart plotter

from the behind

so that's kind of neat and there's two

of those so i'm not going to open both

uh they're just two of the same i'll put

them right here

and then the last thing in that box uh

beside obviously some

uh fixings and some terminals that are

in here

are the little knobs and these little

knobs again well protected well packed

i'm really impressed

it looks really expensive to be honest

it feels exciting it feels like you're

getting a computer and these little

knobs would go on either side

and it would allow the screen to be held

in place depending on remember you can

have the screen like this

like that different angles of viewing

okay

so i can't tell you enough you know when

you've got electronics on your boat and

you're buying something of this

magnitude

right i mean it's expensive it's not

easy uh make sure you always keep the

cover handy and even if it's inside the

boat we recommend to actually put the

cover back on so you don't

ever accidentally scratch the surface

um this cover looks really good

again looks expensive this is a it feels

like a glass bridge it's sort of what i

used to see in the 24 inch screens

and these big screens 22 inch screens

where you're like whoa

and here you've got that in a nine inch

package which actually it's kind of neat

actually why not right um

the transducer port here in the back

um is going to allow you to have this

sort of

real vision 3d something you might want

to look up

on raymarine website it's kind of neat

what it allows you to see in the bottom

it's way more than depth now which is

really really neat we talked about nami

2000 which is good you want that for

connectivity

it also has built-in wi-fi so this is

for you to have

a connection from a tablet to the device

for both seeing what's on the screen and

actually controlling the device like if

you were there

you can obviously on this device from

raymarine

you can obviously bring a radar a

transducer we talked about

you could actually bring other enemy

2000 information or you can even network

it to other displays

to share information as well and lastly

of course raymarine

is owned by flir and so raymarine and

flir

have a really good partnership together

naturally and so this is definitely

compatible with their flare cameras as

well and flir stands for

these thermal imaging cameras that some

of us are putting on our boats

for uh low light visibility and night

navigation

um it's pretty cool as well so this

is the raymarine axiom

nine plus uh check it out

it's pretty neat i'm impressed i have to

say
