SCHMITT & ONGARO MINI HORNS SMALL ON SIZE, BIG ON TONE

Mini Horns

Feb 18, 2020

Stainless Steel Mini Horns from Schmitt & Ongaro Marine are the perfect solution for small boats where space is at a premium. Ideal for refit and OEM, six 12V models are available that top or flush mount, or install unobtrusively out of the way.

While the US Coast Guard doesn’t have a minimum decibel rating for sound-producing devices on vessels under 39.4′, Schmitt & Ongaro’s Mini Horns conform to ABYC A-23 standards. They offer sufficient volume for signaling over distance and have a clear, pleasing tone. Recordings of the single and twin Mini Horns are at bit.ly/HornTones.

Mini Compact Single Horns are available in a weather-resistant Standard version or All Stainless Steel. They’re ideal for installing above or below dashes, consoles and other exposed components. Measuring only 3″ L x 3-1/4″ W x 1-3/4″ H, they produce 105db at 1m FF 410Hz +/20 and draw only 3 amps.

The Standard and All Stainless Mini Hidden Compact Single Horns are designed to be unseen, but provide the same weather-resistance that Schmitt & Ongaro horns are known for. They measure 3″ L x 3-1/4″ W x 1-3/4″ H. They draw 3A and produce 105db at 1m FF 410 Hz +/20.

Flush-mount Stainless Steel Mini Drop-In Single Horns are available in high or low pitch, or paired together for a distinctive tone. Each measures 3″ L x 3-1/4″ W x 1-3/4” H with a 4-7/8″ L x 2-3/8″ W grille, and require a 4″ hole. Producing 106db at 1m FF 410Hz +/20, they draw 3A.

Schmitt & Ongaro Mini Horns are pre-wired for fast and simple installation. The American MSRP for the Compact Mini Horns start at $43.70 USD; Hidden, $34.50 USD; and Drop-In, $60.50 USD. They come with a five-year anti-rust and corrosion warranty and one-year on the internal electric contacts.

Good Advice that You Can Share – The Art of Anchoring  

Unless a boat is secured, it will drift away. If it cannot be attached to something secure, such as a dock, piling, mooring buoy, tree, or boulder, it must be anchored. There is much more to anchoring than simply tossing the anchor over the side. 
 
An anchoring system has two parts: the anchor itself and the rode which connects the anchor to the boat. To be effective, an anchor must have good holding power, and the rode must be strong enough to withstand the strains that are put on it.
