Ray260 Modular Fixed-Mount VHF Radio

A premium VHF radio that fits on any dashboard with a remote, Black Box configuration.

The Ray260 VHF radio packs top-of-the-line communications features into a compact, modular design that works with small and large vessels alike. It includes a full-featured 25 watt VHF radio with Class D Digital Selective Calling (DSC), a full-featured loudhailer/foghorn and an internal multi-station intercom.

Key Features

• Handset: Slimline handset with an extra-large LCD display and dedicated soft keys for easy control of features and functions.
• Powerful Speaker: The powerful, remote-mounted speaker with adjustable volume control ensures you hear everything loud and clear. Ray260 can support two additional handset/speaker locations giving you complete control from up to three locations onboard.
• The Ray260 handset and speaker are the perfect match to Raymarine’s latest generation multi-function displays and instrument systems.
• Digital voicemail and message recording: Ray260’s new Digital Voicemail feature allows you to pre-record a voice message up to 15-seconds and automatically send it to another DSC-equipped vessel. You can also use it to record incoming voice messages or alerts up to 90-seconds long.
• Position tracking: Ray260’s convenient position tracking feature allows you to simultaneously receive position reports from up to five nearby DSC equipped vessels. Their positions are automatically fed over SeaTalk^ng for display right on your multi-function display’s chart screen. This feature is perfect for keeping tabs of other boats in your cruising party, monitoring vessels of interest, or for local fleet management.
• Loudhailer: Ray260’s built-in loudhailer will make you heard on deck and across the harbor. The hailer packs a punch with 30-watt output and two-way talkback too so you can easily communicate with your on-deck crew in noisy conditions. The hailer also includes an automatic foghorn with built-in signals for both power and sailing vessels.

Ray260 easily integrates with other NMEA 2000 (via Raymarine SeaTalk^ng cabling system) or NMEA 0183 onboard electronic systems.
