Overview

The Raymarine R70530 is a trunnion-mount suncover for 9-inch Raymarine Axiom displays, used when the display is installed on its bracket rather than front mounted. It gives the screen and front controls a simple layer of protection when the boat is docked, stored, or sitting between runs.

This cover is made for the standard Axiom 9 mounting arrangement and is not for Axiom Pro units. It is a practical replacement or spare for helm stations, flybridges, center consoles, and other exposed mounting locations where sun, spray, and cockpit traffic can leave electronics uncovered when not in use.

The packaged cover is listed as a cover type accessory with box dimensions of 1 in. H x 7 in. W x 10 in. L and a shipping weight of 0.25 lb, which keeps it easy to store on board as a backup.

Key features

• Fits Raymarine Axiom 9 displays when the unit is trunnion or bracket mounted.
• Not compatible with Axiom Pro models, helping avoid a common fit mistake during replacement.
• Helps protect the display face when the electronics are not being used at the dock, on the trailer, or between trips.
• Useful for exposed helm positions where the chartplotter may see sun, spray, salt air, and regular cockpit activity.
• Lightweight accessory with a compact package size of 1 in. H x 7 in. W x 10 in. L.

Compatibility and fit

This suncover is for Axiom 9 installations using the bracket-style mount. It should not be used as a substitute for covers made for front-mounted Axiom displays or for Axiom Pro displays, since those mounting styles and bezels use different cover arrangements.

Before ordering, check the display model at the helm and confirm that the unit is a 9-inch Axiom mounted on its trunnion bracket. That quick check matters on boats with mixed Raymarine displays, refits, or inherited electronics where the model and mounting style may not be obvious at first glance.

Use cases on board

This cover suits owners who leave an Axiom 9 on a bracket at a helm, cockpit, tower station, or flybridge and want the display covered while the boat is not underway. It is also a useful spare for charter boats, fishing boats, and cruising boats where covers are often removed, stored, and handled daily.

Maintenance and care

Rinse salt and grit from the cover before storage when it has been exposed to spray or washdown water. Let it dry before putting it away, and keep it out of contact with sharp hardware or loose tools that could mark the cover or the display area it protects.
