RAY53 VHF replacement - psubill78 - 05-18-16 05:22 PM I have an older RAY53 on my boat, and want to replace it as part of a full electronics upgrade (A12, new autopilot, a few i70's, all sorts of good stuff) Having trouble finding the installed dimensions of the RAY53, and if there is a new radio that is a direct replacement (or slightly larger to ensure a clean fit. Any recommendations? RE: RAY53 VHF replacement - Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator - 05-19-16 08:35 AM Welcome to the Raymarine Forum psubill78, The dimensions of the Ray53 are as follows: Height 55 mm (2.17 inches) Width 145 mm (5.7 inches) Depth 160 mm (6.3 inches) The dimensions of the Ray53 surface mount cutout are as follows: Height 47 mm (1.85 inches) Width 134 mm (5.27 inches) Raymarine has not produced a VHF radio which has been designed to exactly fit the cutout and footprint of the Ray53. However, the closest currently manufactured Raymarine VHF radio would be the Ray50/52. Th Ray52 features a built-in GPS sensor. The dimensions of the Ray50/52 are as follows: Height 88.5 mm (3.5 inches) Width 156 mm (6.1 in.) The dimensions of the Ray53 surface mount cutout are as follows: Height 59 mm (2.3 inches) Width 144.6 mm (5.7 inches) |
