Weak horn

Have a Nathan Air Chime hanging in the shed...I guess that could work. Could run off a scuba bottle and a high flow regulator.

My horn sounds like a whithle, kinda like a toy train. It's not good for much of anything other than saying hi pulling into a Cove, but I've grown to like it!

I'm not on the ocean anymore but a horn might save your life. Something to consider when you can barely see the bow through the fog.

Well, I finally gave up on finding the original two element Aqua Signal horn.
I bought a new one that was a "dual tone" and installed it today.
Three solid stars on amazon!
Much louder.
But not that smooth 'Buick-esque" sound I remembered.
Oh well.

Great to hear. You should post the link so big brother google can find it for others. It seems to be a small but tricky item to direct replace.
Better yet how about a you tube video so we can experience it!

Yeah, like I said before, no cool Buick sound. Only a louder electronic horn sound that might be described as two tone.
Hope it lasts a couple seasons anyway, the reviews on the horn were not that great.

Hey DA232. So glad you found us!

Normally it’s up in the anchor locker or under the gunwale starboard side near your helm.

Any pics?

And welcome aboard mate!

Was there ever a link provided for this replacement horn? Said it was purchased off amazon, but that doesnt exactly narrow it down much.

My marine horn sounded similar until I adjusted the screw on the back and got it's volume back.
