Raymarine premieres flagship e165 multifunction display
New eSeries MFD boasts largest screen-to-space ratio so farRaymarine launched its new e165 at the inaugural in-water boat show in Amsterdam last week.
The latest addition to the award-winning eSeries Multifunction displays (MFDs), the e165 sports a full 15.4” 16:9 wide-format display but sits in the same footprint as a traditional 14” screen, giving 20 per cent more screen for the same helm or dash space.
The arrival of the e165 means that eSeries MFDs are now available in four sizes: 7”, 9”, 12” and the new 15.4” screen.
Each eSeries MFD is able to network up to 6 displays plus sonar, radar, thermal and other accessories.
The super-bright LCD displays are backlit with LEDs to improve overall power efficiency and provide maximum linear brightness control, explains Raymarine.
The displays offer clear and consistent colour and contrast levels, even with changes to the viewing angle, and are further enhanced by a choice of colour palettes that allow for optimum use of available sunlight and save power and energy.
The new e165 is described as a powerful multi-tasker. Three processors -- a dual-core main processor and a third dedicated graphics processor -- give stunning graphics, brilliant video and instantaneous chart redraws, says Raymarine.
The e165 is also said to be incredibly easy to use thanks to the latest version of Raymarine’s LightHouse user-interface, while also utilising the full power capability of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.
The dedicated inbuilt Wi-Fi combined with Raymarine’s new apps enables live video from the e165 to be streamed direct to tablets and smartphones in real time.
Navigation charts, thermal video, radar or sonar information on the eSeries can be accessed and controlled (RayRemote and RayControl apps) from absolutely anywhere on-board.
Available with optional Silver-level Navionics cartography on microSD (upgradeable to Gold and Platinum on chart chip), the new e165 eSeries HybridTouch MFD will be available for shipping in Australia in October. The unit costs from $7395.
