    Raymarine System Troubleshooting

    Mobile techs in company vans. A real company with real warranties.

We have some sailor turned technicians on staff that are gung-ho Raymarine believers.  Get these guys on your boat with Garmin electronics and they’ll convince you to throw it all away and replace the lot of it.  Just kidding!  But, they can install and troubleshoot some Raymarine gear and believe in it.  If you are looking for a complete electronics update or just have an issue or question about a particular part of your system, give us call and we can help.  We work on everything Raymarine including the following systems:

  • Raymarine chartplotters installation

  • Raymarine instruments including wind, depth, and tri-data

  • Raymarine transducer installation

  • Raymarine VHF and AIS setup

  • Raymarine autopilot calibration

  • Raymarine software troubleshooting

  • Raymarine warranty work

Raymarine chartplotter installation

Once in 2023, there was a week where we built the Raymarine “tower-of-power.”  We were installing 8 separate chartplotters in a single week and stacked them all up in their boxes to form a tower, taller than our lead Raymarine tech.   We do these installations often and work on individual components even more often.  If you are looking to upgrade your existing electronics with a new system or just have a minor issue with your current Raymarine chartplotter, give us a call.  Our experienced technicians can help you with your issue, or make recommendations on what type of new system you should be looking at.  We are always looking for customers for life, so, you aren’t going to get technicians that are trying to sell you the latest and greatest- unless the latest and greatest is what you need and want.  Our techs are terrible sales people, but, they do great work.

Raymarine Instrument Repair and Troubleshooting

Is your wind instrument pointing the wrong direction?  We had a customer who sailed for a year across the Caribbean with his wind direction arrow pointing 180 degrees in the wrong direction the entire time.  He said it was fine, he just dealt with it.  He called us out for an unrelated transducer issue and while there, our tech calibrated his wind gauge in about 30 seconds.  Our guys know their trade.  If you are having issues with a wind, depth, speed or tri-data or damn near any device that says Raymarine on it, give us a call.  

Raymarine transducer installation and testing

Is your transducer acting up?  Depth readings all wrong?  No little fishey’s on your screen for you to target?  Give us a call.  From drilling holes in million dollar boats to calibrating the gain on your fishfinder screen, we have a technician who actually knows what they are talking about and can get the job done.  Further, they enjoy drilling holes in boats!  It takes years of practice to be able to drill that hole without even a hint of a blip in their heart rates.  Our techs are so chill about drilling holes in boats because they are that good.  Just turn on your phone and dial the number.  :)

Raymarine VHF and AIS setup

Picture yourself 10 miles offshore and there is that tanker over there that looks like its bearing down on you.  It’s the size of a football field and its going to steam roll right over you!  Or, maybe, its going to miss you by 5 miles.  If you had an AIS on your boat you would know these things with absolute certainty.  And we can help!  Our techs have calibrated (and installed) so many AIS systems I know, before you even start to question, that you do NOT want to try to enter all that information into the AIS system for your boat.  You do NOT want to plug that little microSD card into your AIS, then try to run some 30 year old MS-DOS file program in there so that your boat information is correct.  Trust me.  Just give us a call.  We can test your VHF antenna, install your VHF, make sure all those little black wires are attached to the correct things, and that you can tell that that giant freighter ship is actually going to miss you.  And better yet, he will move out of your way because you are broadcasting over AIS

Raymarine autopilot calibration

Does your autopilot turn 90 degrees when you are not looking?  Are you not able to go make yourself a mojito while your boat is on its way to the Bahamas?  Then your autopilot is not working.  Give us a call.  In addition to troubleshooting and tweaking autopilots, we have technicians on staff that can even install these things from scratch.  Complicated systems full of hydraulic connections and/or electrical wizardry, if you are looking at a Raymarine autopilot system give Old Town Marine a call.

Raymarine Software Update

If your boat is a few years old and you’ve never updated the software, it may start running slow and you may be missing out on years worth of improvements.  Think of all these things that exist now.  There is AI!  And, seriously, we didn’t even use it to write this content because we are not just good at fixing boats, we are also good at writing content about fixing boats!  And, while AI is super cool, it all does kind of sound the same.  Maybe next year they’ll figure that out.  Our technicians travel around with the most up to date Raymarine SD card in their vans and can bring your 10 year old chartplotter close to today’s specs while on your boat.  Give us a call.  Oh, and PS, software updates often fix those random issues that may pop up that seem to have no other cause. 

Raymarine warranty work and other things

We can also assist with your new/ish Raymarine products that may not be working or performing as you think it should.  We have relationships with Raymarine where we can facilitate these repairs, or just get the settings right, or complete swap outs if they are warranted.  Also, if there is the word RAYMARINE written on the product, and we haven’t delineated it above, trust us, we can also fix it, replace it, or tell you lots of cool things about it.  Just give our office a call with your Raymarine questions and we’ve got the answers.
