Raymarine Live: Everything Element!

The Element series of Sonar/GPS navigation displays are compact powerhouses that are ultra-fast and simple to use. This week we’ll be looking in-depth at the Element HV and Element S systems, powered by the LightHouse Sport operating system.

For fishermen we’ll look at the Element with HyperVision Sonar and offer tips and tricks to get the most of this powerful system. We’ll also explore in detail the Element-S with built-in CHIRP sonar that is the perfect all-in-one navigator and sonar for RIBs, dinghies, and small cruising power and sailboats.

We’ll also speak to Element’s integration capabilities with radar, autopilot, instruments and other devices. Plus, we’ll be ready to take your Raymarine product questions, live!

Raymarine Live streams Thursday evenings at 7:00 PM Eastern on Facebook and YouTube. We hope to see you there!

Please Add new colors to the realbathy map construction palette. There is not enough contrast in the constructed maps!

Found the information I need for sailing with the element on your video channel. Convinced me to buy one. Excellent content here, thanks for posting.

How can I reduce the light intensity of the Axion Hybrid Touch 16″ GPS screen?

[carlosrodriguez-rouk]

Thanks for your help
How do I set up the fish finder since it’s not ready at 2 feet.

When I am sailing at more than 25 miles per hour it does not read depth. That is normal? And I can't see the route well on the GPS and I bought the card to navigate in the Caribbean.

Hi I have a new boat and my Boat brought a GPS 16 Axiom Hybrid Touch. How do I change the GPS from knots to miles?
Thanks for help

Hi thanks for the great videos... I have a question regarding good settings to locate a thermocline on my Element 9, my old lowrance would clearly display but I am having trouble getting settings which show up on my Element.
Thanks

2 questions.
1. Can this unit (the fishfinder) be used for offshore fishing?

2. Can one use an in-hull/through hull transducer? If yes which tranducer would be the best choice?

Is is possible to “mirror” the display of my Element 12 at the helm to a second Element mounted at the stern of the boat? Thanks

[bobdoyle]

Great video Jim! is there a way that I can view the Lat/Long while moving the curser with the directional pad? Sometimes someone will give me there location and I would like to use the pad to move the curser to that location to place a drop pin. Thanks!

What is the best position to install the transducer in position to the engine if it is standard right turning to prevent noise in the screen and keep it minimal?

Hi Jim, I have complete Raymarine System on my sailboat Bavaria 36 cruiser 2003 with st60 tridata gauges and still everything working fine, now looking to fit new ploter im my cocpit.
Is the element 7s compatible with st60 tridata gauges, will I be able to operate with autopilot from element, will be all information from wind gauge visible on element, also I have airmar depth transducer fited, not sure if this old transducer will be good for element fishfinder?

Thank you for the reply to my comment below. This helped me with my Element S on my sailboat. I have another Element HDS on my fishing boat and have ran into a problem. Unit has been working great, but at cruising speed (24 MPH) I lose the depth when I get into 58-62 feet of water. No problems with this in shallower water or when I back down the speed for trolling (2.5 MPH). Any thoughts on what I could do?

Thank for A great Video. I would like to know if I can enlarge the 3D on the screen so I can see smaller detail?
