Overview

The Raymarine E70369-00-102 is a 12 inch multifunction display with built-in RealVision 3D sonar channels, a preloaded LightHouse Charts North America card, and no transducer in the box. The 12 inch WXGA touchscreen runs at 1280 x 800, has an internal GNSS receiver for GPS, GLONASS, and Beidou, and carries IPX6 and IPX7 protection for an exposed helm.

This model works well when you want one display to handle charting now and sonar after you add the transducer that suits your hull and the way you fish. The sonar hardware is already in the unit, with CHIRP conical sonar, DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D available once a compatible RealVision transducer is connected through the 25 pin port.

It also leaves room to build out the rest of the system. RayNet handles Ethernet networking, the included power cable adds a DeviceNet connection for NMEA 2000, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are built in. For boats with a 24V house bank, this display still needs a 12V feed within its 8 to 16 V DC operating range.

Key features

• 12 inch WXGA 1280 x 800 IPS touchscreen with 1200 nit brightness for clear viewing in open helms and bright daylight
• Built-in 600 W sonar platform with CHIRP conical sonar, DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D channels
• No transducer included, which leaves the install open for a compatible RealVision transducer matched to the boat and mounting plan
• Preloaded LightHouse Charts North America card included for coastal and inland navigation
• Internal GNSS receiver supports GPS, GLONASS, and Beidou for onboard position data without adding an external antenna
• RayNet 10/100 Ethernet, NMEA 2000, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth support a wider helm network with radar, autopilot, instruments, cameras, and mobile apps
• IPX6 and IPX7 protection and a -25°C to +55°C operating range suit wet helm locations and seasonal temperature swings
• One MicroSDXC slot gives you removable storage for chart regions, routes, and software updates

Compatibility and fit

This is a good fit for center consoles, bay boats, walkarounds, and cruising helms where a larger touchscreen is easier to read at speed or from a standing position. It works as a standalone chartplotter out of the box, and it becomes a full sonar display after you add a compatible RealVision transducer. If you are replacing an older Raymarine display or building around Raymarine components, the RayNet and NMEA 2000 connections keep the integration straightforward.

Chart support includes LightHouse Charts, Navionics, and C-MAP. That matters if you already have charting preferences on board or need to match other displays in the boat. This unit also has the network foundation for adding Quantum radar, Evolution autopilot, instruments, and compatible cameras as the system grows.

Installation and setup

The housing is set up for flush or surface mounting, and the supplied trunnion bracket gives you bracket-mount flexibility if the dash does not have a finished cutout yet. Plan helm space around the unit size of 314 mm wide by 226.72 mm high, and leave enough rear clearance for the 178 mm installation depth with cables connected.

Because this version does not include a transducer, it suits repowers and custom installs where the transducer choice depends on hull shape, deadrise, trailer clearance, or the kind of scanning you want in shallow water and along structure. It is also a sensible match for boaters who want the Axiom RV sonar platform now and plan to add more networked equipment later.
