Raymarine RayStar 150 GPS Sensor w/Pole Mount

Equip your vessel with reliable positioning data that stands up to the harshest marine conditions. The Raymarine RS150 GPS sensor delivers pinpoint accuracy and rapid updates, making it an essential upgrade for boaters who demand precision in navigation, autopilot control, and chart plotting. Whether you're cruising coastal waters or venturing offshore, this compact GNSS receiver ensures your Raymarine multifunction display (MFD) receives high-quality satellite signals without compromise.

Why the RS150 GPS Sensor Excels on the Water

Crafted for seamless integration into Raymarine ecosystems, the RS150 outperforms standard GPS units with its 72-channel architecture. This allows simultaneous tracking of multiple satellites, reducing signal loss in cluttered harbors or under tree canopies. Boaters report fewer position jumps during dynamic maneuvers, thanks to the 10Hz update rate—ten times faster than traditional 1Hz sensors. Imagine smoother autopilot tracking around buoys or more responsive radar overlays on your charts.

Supporting both GPS and GLONASS constellations, it broadens sky visibility, especially in high latitudes where GPS alone might falter. Pair that with Space-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) like WAAS for North America or EGNOS for Europe, and you achieve sub-5-meter accuracy under optimal conditions—critical for anchoring in tight spots or fishing over structure.

Flexible Mounting for Any Vessel Setup

The included pole mount kit transforms installation from basic surface to elevated positioning, clearing obstructions like radomes or Bimini tops. Its low-profile design measures just 4.27 inches in diameter and 1.05 inches tall, blending discreetly on deck. White finish resists fading under UV exposure, while the IPX6/7 rating shrugs off heavy spray and submersion. From center consoles to flybridges, adapt it to your boat's layout without drilling extra holes.

Installation is straightforward: secure with threaded studs, gasket, and finger nuts, then connect via the supplied SeaTalkng cable. Power draws minimally at 30mA, sipping from your 12V system (8-32V range) to preserve battery life on long passages.

Built to Withstand Marine Demands

Engineered for extremes, it operates from -25°F to 131°F (-25°C to 55°C) and up to 93% humidity. High sensitivity (-163dBm) grabs signals even in challenging environments, with cold starts under 2 minutes and hot starts in seconds—backed by a 72-hour hold-up battery. Speed accuracy better than 0.3 knots keeps your log reliable during high-speed runs or slow trolling.

Effortless Compatibility Across Systems

Native SeaTalkng support means plug-and-play with Axiom, Axiom Pro, or Element series MFDs. For broader networks, NMEA2000 compatibility via DeviceNet adapter opens doors to third-party plotters and instruments. Share precise position, speed, and time data network-wide, enhancing AR200 augmented reality or Quantum radar performance.
