Raymarine Axiom 2XL 16 w/RVM1600 Sonar Module

The Raymarine Axiom 2 XL 16 RVM bundle pairs a 15.6-inch Full HD HydroTough display with an RVM1600 sonar module. This is a different proposition from a display-only MFD: the module brings 1kW CHIRP, RealVision MAX 3D, SideVision, and DownVision to the system. It suits offshore boats and large cruisers that want a serious Raymarine sonar package without moving to a 22-inch bridge display.

The 1200-nit screen gives the helm useful daylight visibility, while LightHouse 4 handles chart and system pages. Three PoE RayNet ports allow the RVM1600 and other Raymarine equipment to connect, and HDMI input/output supports video. The bundle accepts 12/24V DC and draws 76.56W for the MFD plus 10.4W for the sonar module. A compatible transducer is still required for the RVM1600, so check the final sonar plan before ordering.

Who Is This For?

This Raymarine sonar bundle suits offshore fishing boats, sportfishers, cruisers, and 25- to 45-foot vessels with room for a 15.6-inch MFD and external sounder module. It is not ideal for a compact boat or a buyer expecting a complete transducer package; the RVM1600 still needs compatible sonar hardware.

Warranty & Support

Raymarine provides a 3-year warranty with registration. The supplied specifications do not state exclusions or service procedures.

The Axiom 2 XL 16 RVM bundle is the sonar-equipped alternative to a standard Axiom 2 XL display, adding the RVM1600 module for advanced Raymarine imaging. The trade-off is power and installation complexity, plus the need to confirm the compatible transducer separately. Choose it when RealVision MAX and SideVision matter more than a simple chartplotter-only system.
