Raymarine LightHouse North America Chart, For Axiom and Element MFDs, microSD Card

Overview

The Raymarine R70794 is a LightHouse Chart North America preloaded microSD card for compatible Raymarine Axiom and Element chartplotter displays. It gives boaters electronic chart coverage for the contiguous United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, Baja California, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Bahamas coastlines, the Great Lakes, and more than 6,000 inland freshwater bodies of water.

This chart is built for real navigation work on cruising boats, fishing boats, and tenders that rely on a Raymarine display at the helm. It supports route planning, shoreline awareness, marina and service searches, tides and currents information, and clearer chart viewing when moving between coastal, Great Lakes, inland, and island waters.

Because it is chart data on a microSD card, there is no 12V or 24V wiring, no NMEA network setup, and no through-hull installation involved. The main fit check is chartplotter compatibility and current LightHouse software support before loading or using the card on board.

Key features

• Preloaded North America LightHouse chart card for Raymarine Axiom and Element displays.
• Coverage includes U.S. coastlines, coastal Canada, Baja California, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Bahamas, the Great Lakes, and over 6,000 inland freshwater lakes.
• Includes tides and currents information for planning passages, fishing days, marina approaches, and timing through channels.
• Color-shaded depth contours help make shallow water, channels, ledges, and depth changes easier to read on the chartplotter screen.
• Four chart color palettes help the display remain readable in different light conditions, including bright daylight and night running.
• Chart symbol controls let the operator adjust how chart objects appear, which helps reduce clutter at the helm.
• Includes one year of LightHouse Charts Premium for chart updates, expanded points of interest, and high-resolution satellite aerial overlays.
• MicroSD card format keeps installation simple for refits, chart updates, and boats already using a compatible Raymarine display.

Compatibility and fit

This chart is meant for Raymarine LightHouse-compatible multifunction displays, including Axiom and Element chartplotters. Before ordering, check that the display supports LightHouse Charts and that its software is up to date, since older software can limit chart operation or available features.

It is a good match for boats that already run Raymarine electronics and need North America chart coverage without adding a separate navigation device. It suits coastal cruising, fishing, Great Lakes boating, Bahamas trips, and inland freshwater use where the covered regions match the boat’s normal operating area.

Installation and setup

The card is used through the chartplotter’s chart card slot or managed through the Raymarine Chart Manager workflow. After activation, the Premium subscription can be used for available chart updates and additional content during the included subscription period.

Keep the card dry when handling it, avoid touching the contacts, and store any voucher or subscription details with the boat’s electronics records. On shared or charter vessels, that makes future updates and troubleshooting much easier for the next operator or technician.

Use on board

At the helm, this chart helps with the everyday decisions that matter: checking depths before entering a cove, reviewing marina approaches, watching for current timing, and planning a route before leaving the dock. For anglers, the depth presentation and inland lake coverage can also help when moving between fishing grounds, ramps, and unfamiliar water.
