Raymarine Electronics: Reliable Navigation

For more than 80 years, Raymarine Electronics has been engaged in the manufacture and development of marine electronics for recreational boating and light commercial marine markets.

Today, Raymarine leads the world and has branched out into the making of more electronic products such as radar, autopilots, GPS, chartplotters, marine electronic instruments, fishfinders, communications, software and systems and many others.

Raymarine credits its success to the principles of excellence in engineering, product innovation and uncompromising attention to product quality and service. Some of their bestsellers today are the Raymarine ST2000 Plus Tiller Pilot, ST60 Plus Depth System, and the ST60 Plus Wind System.

Raymarine ST2000 Plus Tiller Pilot

Also known as autohelm (invented in 1973 and a Raymarine trademark that became a generic name), the Raymarine ST2000 Plus Tiller Pilot is the world's most popular pilot. Its convenient features and reliable performance had set the standards for being user-friendly, reliable and with superb performance.

Most of Raymarine's satisfied customers are familiar with features of the ST2000 Plus Tiller Pilot. One of them is the AutoSeastate which holds the boat on course while conserving energy while at the same time the pilot tacks the boat.

The Tiller Pilot can be used in cooperation with a SeaTalk/NMEA GPS (or can work on its own) and have the pilot steer to your destinations. With the AutoTack system, it can confirm current and locked heading, even the wind and other navigational data.

The Raymarine ST2000 Plus Tiller Pilot does its own efficient steering (for maximum power conservation), with user-adjustable settings and alarms, optional remote control, and external compass.

The Raymarine ST60 Plus Wind System

One of the world's top choices in the selection of wind systems to use, the Raymarine ST60 Plus Wind System had always been the favorite of sailors, boat racers, cruisers, and other sailing enthusiasts. The reasons are as varied as the people who make up this group.

All of these aficionados are happy that the device provides very accurate information on wind speed and direction. These data are given variously in either knots, meters per second, or as Beaufort scale values.

This system gives out not only the basic speed and direction information, it also provides an array of data for the related interest in boat racing, sailing, cruising and docking.

The Raymarine ST60 Plus Depth System

This product had become synonymous with the famous accuracy and quality of Raymarine. These characteristics had been in the minds of sailors, boat owners, and lovers of sailing, professionals and amateurs alike.

The ST60 Plus Depth System is a sailing instrument that measures the depth of water from the vantage point of the boat. This data is given in feet, fathoms or meters.

This rugged instrument gives out reliable information even in the most demanding conditions.

The ST60 Plus Depth System gets its data either from its connected depth transducer (master mode) or from another depth-calculating device connected to the SeaTalk data network (repeater mode).

Raymarine Electronics had done some improvements on the ST60 Plus Depth System, especially its alarm system, monitor digits (made them bigger) and did some tweaking on the variable contrast in the screen. For now, the world of yachting and small boats is simply happy to have their equipments and devices, more than 340 products all in all, coming from Raymarine.
