The Raymarine Ray63 brings your onboard communication to the next level with its dual-station support and rich feature set. Built on the foundation of Ray53’s compact design, the Ray63 ups the game with a larger display and oversized controls that make operation easy even in rough seas. This VHF radio is equipped with Class D DSC, so you can send a distress call with your vessel ID and GPS coordinates at a moment’s notice, improving safety for all on board. Thanks to the built-in GNSS/GPS receiver, no external antenna is required for obtaining position data for DSC. One of the standout features of the Ray63 is its multi-station capability: a port on the back allows you to connect an additional wired RayMic handset, or you can go wireless by adding Raymarine’s optional wireless hub and handset kit. This means you can have full radio control from a second location on the boat – for example, on a flybridge or secondary steering station – without being tethered to the main unit. It also doubles as an intercom system, enabling clear communication between crew at different stations. The Ray63 provides an audio line-out for an extra speaker as well, so you can mount a remote speaker and never miss a call even on an open deck or loud engine room. Naturally, the radio integrates with the rest of your electronics via SeaTalkng/NMEA2000 or NMEA0183, sharing and receiving data such as DSC alerts or GPS info on your chartplotter’s display. With its modern styling matching Raymarine’s Axiom series, the Ray63 delivers both form and function, giving you confidence and convenience whether you’re cruising offshore or navigating busy harbors.
