Raymarine Ray91 Modular Dual-Station VHF Black Box Radio System w/AIS Product Description
Enhance your boating safety and connectivity with the Raymarine Ray91, a modular dual-station VHF black box radio system designed for serious mariners. This sleek, space-saving transceiver tucks away out of sight, delivering powerful 25-watt transmission and crystal-clear reception through intuitive RayMic handsets. Whether you're coordinating with your crew across multiple stations or tracking nearby vessels via built-in AIS, the Ray91 keeps you informed and in command on the water.
Boaters appreciate its rugged aluminum construction that withstands harsh marine environments, from pounding waves to extreme temperatures. Pair it with your existing multifunction display (MFD) for seamless integration, turning your helm into a command center for navigation, communication, and collision avoidance.
Powerful Performance for Demanding Conditions
The heart of the Ray91 is its commercial-grade 25-watt transmitter, ensuring your calls cut through noise and distance. Standard features like channel scanning, dual-watch, tri-watch, and weather alerts keep you one step ahead of changing conditions. Input your vessel's MMSI once, and Class D Digital Selective Calling (DSC) activates advanced safety functions effortlessly.
- Monitor up to five nearby DSC-equipped vessels with position tracking, sharing data directly to your MFD.
- Stay alert to NOAA weather channels with automatic alerts.
- Operate across US, Canadian, and international marine bands for global versatility.
For GPS functionality, connect the optional GA150 passive antenna to unlock position-based features like precise distress signaling.
Integrated AIS for Enhanced Situational Awareness
Built-in Class B AIS receiver lets you "see" nearby vessels on your chartplotter, displaying critical data like name, course, speed, and closest point of approach (CPA). This receive-only system receives safety broadcasts from AIS-equipped ships, stations, and aids to navigation, helping you avoid collisions in busy waterways or fog.
Imagine threading through a crowded harbor: AIS overlays vessel icons on your screen, giving you real-time traffic intel without cluttering your VHF channels. Share AIS data via NMEA0183 or NMEA2000 networks for a unified display across your electronics suite.
Flexible Multi-Station Setup and Expansion
The black box design frees up dash space while supporting dual stations right out of the box—one wired RayMic handset and passive speaker included. Expand to two handsets for communication from the flybridge, tower, salon, or staterooms. Intercom functionality keeps crew connected without tying up VHF channels.
Simple networking via NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 means plug-and-play compatibility with Raymarine MFDs and other devices. In Europe, ATIS support handles inland waterway requirements seamlessly.
Loudhailer and Fog Signaling for On-Water Authority
Command attention with the integrated 30-watt loudhailer and 2-way talkback. Connect an optional hailing horn to hail vessels, announce arrivals, or coordinate docking. In low visibility, automatic fog signals comply with COLREGS for power-driven, sailing, or anchored vessels—peace of mind without manual intervention.
Built to Last in Marine Extremes
Crafted from solid aluminum, the transceiver resists shock, vibration, and heat buildup. RayMic handsets boast IPX6/IPX7 waterproofing, super-bright LCD backlighting, and oversized keys for gloved operation. Operating from -25°C to +55°C, it thrives in sun, rain, or freeze.
