Schmitt Marine Deluxe All-Stainless Shorty Dual Trumpet Horn – 12V (Model 10012)

The Schmitt Marine 10028 is a premium 12V Deluxe All-Stainless Dual Trumpet Horn designed for boaters who prioritize both safety and long-lasting aesthetics. Unlike many "stainless" horns that use plastic or coated metal for internal parts, the 10028 features 304 stainless steel construction for the trumpets, motor cover, brackets, and even the internal diaphragms.

Powerful Harmonized Sound

The dual-trumpet design produces two different frequencies that harmonize to create a rich, deep tone. This combination is significantly more effective at cutting through engine noise and wind than a single trumpet, ensuring you are heard clearly by other vessels or at the dock.

Key Features:

• High Decibel Output: Rated at 122 dB at one meter, providing powerful signaling that meets USCG requirements for vessels up to 12 meters (39.4 ft).

• Guaranteed Durability: Includes a 5-year warranty against rust and corrosion, thanks to its 100% stainless steel construction.

• Pre-Wired for Easy Install: Comes with tinned wire leads and a rubber mounting gasket to simplify installation and protect your fiberglass or gelcoat.

• Sealed Sound Unit: The motor and internal components are completely sealed to prevent salt air and moisture from causing premature failure.

• Adjustable Support: Includes an adjustable stainless steel pedestal stand to support the long trumpets and reduce vibration during high-speed transit.

Why Choose the Deluxe 10028?

The 10028 is the definitive "buy it once" horn for your 12V vessel. While cheaper chrome-plated horns often begin to pit and fail within a year of saltwater exposure, the all-stainless construction of the 10028 ensures it remains mirror-bright and loud for many seasons. It is the gold standard for sportfishers, cruisers, and premium center consoles.

Installation Pro-Tip:

This horn draws 7 Amps, which is higher than standard single horns. To ensure you get the maximum volume (122 dB), use at least 14 AWG tinned marine wire for your installation. If your existing horn wiring is thin, consider using a 4-pin marine relay to supply full battery power directly to the horn while using your dash button as the trigger.
