Multifunction Display by Raymarine C Series

When it comes to multifunction displays for navigation out on the water, a lot of options and a lot of aspects need to be taken into consideration.   With so many available systems, one may even at first feel overwhelmed by the amount of choices. Nevertheless, for a compact and effective system that will do the job and stand the test of time (and elements) two choices clearly stand beyond the others: the Raymarine C Series models and the Raymarine E Series models. Here, we will to be exposing the features of the Raymarine C Series and taking a look at some of the divergence between the C70, C80 and C120.

The Raymarine C Series all come complete with inputs for GPS sensor, radar, HD Digital sounder module, SIRIUS satellite radio, and Marine Weather.   So, no matter what the circumstance you’ll know where you are, where you’re going, and how the weather will be like when you get there.  To top it off, you’ll always have a nearly endless selection of music for the trip. 130 commercial-free stations, to be precise.

All of the C Series structures can use Raymarine’s SeaTalk and Seatalk2/SeatalkNG navigation systems for communicating with navigation networks and autopilots. Furthermore, all models support the industry standard NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 for integration with third party electronics as well as electronic engine mounting.

The Raymarine C Series units all come with an owner’s manual, quick reference guide, full-face suncover, trunion mounting kit, flush mounting kit, NMEA input/output cable, power cable, and SeaTalk cable.

All of the Raymarine C Series utilize the latest in LCD technology, so that they are direct-sunlight visible and easy to read.   The screens are clear, with high resolution and high contrast.   The units feature a 640×840 pixel transflective LCD panel with 256 different colors. The picture remains clear under the most challenging of lighting conditions, and out on the open sea, lighting conditions can’t be more challenging.

The only deviation between the three units in the Raymarine C Series are their sizes and price.   The C70 screen is about 6. 5″ and is good for mounting on either the helm or the center console of a boat. This devise runs at a standard 1,455.   The C80 screen is 8. 4″ and better suited to the helm and costs a bit more, at 2,040.   The C120 is the biggest and brightest of the series, with a screen of 12. 1″ that is meant to be mounted to a helm or dashboard. The largest of the series, this unit costs 2,455.

Each of these systems works at basically the same level.   It is the space available on the boat that dictates which system is right for you.   While the C70 is a perfectly practical choice, the C120 is a more elaborate system in its size and can be seen clearly from across the cockpit. All of these instruments are tough and waterproof.   They include their own mounting brackets and low-profile flush mounting kit.
