Pre-wired for quick connection, the horn combines a robust 18\/8 (304) stainless-steel cover and diaphragm with a sealed enclosure and a vibration-dampening pad to resist splash, salt, and vibration. Its small footprint lets you install it in tight spots while still producing a loud, recognizable tone at a fundamental frequency near 440 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow loud is this horn and what does that mean on the water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe horn produces about 106 dB measured at one meter, making it audible over engine noise and wind at short to moderate distances. That level is suitable for signaling in busy marinas, rivers, and coastal waters when used according to local sound-signal rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSound rating: 106 dB at 1 meter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFundamental frequency: 440 ± 20 Hz for a clear, attention-getting tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned to be heard over typical onboard noise levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow easy is it to install and power the horn?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe horn comes pre-wired and runs on 12 volts, drawing a maximum of about 3 amps.
