Raymarine Front Flush Mount f/ Ray55 Front Mounting A42119

Installing your Raymarine Ray55 VHF radio just got a whole lot cleaner and more professional with this dedicated front flush mount. Designed specifically for front-facing setups, it lets you embed the radio seamlessly into your boat's console or dashboard, creating a sleek, modern look that maximizes space and minimizes clutter. Whether you're retrofitting an older vessel or building a custom helm station, this mount ensures a secure, vibration-resistant fit that stands up to the rigors of marine environments.

Why Opt for a Front Flush Mount on Your Ray55?

Traditional surface mounts can protrude awkwardly, catching gear or obstructing views, but a flush installation sits perfectly level with your panel. This not only enhances the aesthetics of your setup but also improves safety by reducing snag hazards during rough seas. It's ideal for tight spaces where every inch counts, like on sportfishing boats, sailboats, or center consoles. The mount aligns precisely with the Ray55's dimensions, preventing distortion of controls or screens while maintaining full access to knobs, buttons, and the display.

Seamless Compatibility and Build Quality

Crafted from durable, corrosion-resistant materials built to withstand saltwater exposure, UV rays, and constant humidity, this mount matches Raymarine's reputation for rugged reliability. It's a perfect match for the compact Ray55 VHF, supporting its key functions like DSC distress calling, digital selective calling, and weather channels without any interference. Users often pair it with other Raymarine accessories for a unified look, but it works standalone to elevate any VHF installation.

• Precision-cut template for hassle-free cutting into panels up to standard marine thicknesses.
• Secure fastening hardware included for rock-solid hold even in heavy swells.
• Low-profile design that preserves forward visibility and fingertip access.
• Easy alignment with the Ray55's mounting holes—no guesswork required.

Pro Tips for a Flawless Installation

Start by selecting a flat, stable panel surface away from heat sources or excessive wiring. Trace the provided template carefully, then use a jigsaw or hole saw for clean edges—sand them smooth to avoid sharp burrs. Secure the Ray55 first, slide into the cutout, and tighten from behind for a tamper-proof finish. Always double-check cable routing to prevent chafing, and test all radio functions post-install. This setup not only looks factory-fresh but also boosts resale value by showcasing thoughtful customization.

For those upgrading from older VHF models, the flush mount transforms bulky relics into streamlined tech, blending effortlessly with modern multifunction displays or chartplotters. It's a small investment that pays off in daily usability and that satisfying "just right" feel every skipper craves.
