Boasting significantly upgraded performance and networking, comparable to the larger and more expensive Axiom 2 Pro and Axiom 2 XL, the new Axiom 2 models are designed to work seamlessly with the latest generation of marine apps, as well as with those still in development. Available in the smaller 7-, 9- and 12-inch sizes, Axiom 2 features an impressive upgraded 6-core processor, delivering noticeably faster startup, chart rendering and multitasking. Thanks to its integral Gigabit RayNet® Ethernet, it also offers faster chart sharing, data transfer and lower-latency video. Axiom 2’s expanded system memory of 64 GB allows it to store a huge range of apps, charts, screenshots and data. - Advertisement, article continues below - Vindex 350 (1988) 109000 1988 | 11.60 m | 1988 Vindex 350, 11.6m Jim Young-designed GRP cruiser.
