AFI 10106 Dual Trumpet Chrome Brass Air Boat Horn Kit with Compressor, 12 Volt, ABYC/NMMA Compliant
The AFI 10106 Dual Trumpet Chrome Brass Air Boat Horn Kit with Compressor is a 12 volt air horn system built for boaters who need a loud, code-compliant signaling device. The kit pairs a dual trumpet chrome brass horn assembly with a 12 volt compressor, giving it the air supply needed to produce true air-horn sound rather than the thinner tone of an electric horn. Sound output ranges from 120 to 127 dB, with a measured rating of 121 dB at one meter (1/3 octave band), making it audible at a distance in open water or foggy conditions. The kit meets ABYC and NMMA regulations for signaling devices on boats up to 66 feet in length, so it is suitable for a wide range of recreational and small commercial vessels that need to carry a compliant sound signal. The dual trumpet design and chrome brass construction give the horn a finished, marine-grade look that mounts well on deck, helm, or engine compartment installations. Because the kit runs on a 12 volt compressor rather than a hand-pump or canned-air system, it delivers repeatable blasts on demand without needing to be recharged or replaced after use.
