My Dad had a 1961 Seamist with the monster 75 Evinrude Starflight - which performed great - as long as you kept feeding it a steady supply of properly gapped spark plugs.

But one of the coolest features on the boat was a manual air horn. It had two trumpets on the bow - but on the dash it had a plunger with a pump behind it - pull out and push it like a bike pump - super old school cool - we could make that things blast!

Never seen one again!

I would love to find/see one again - any of you guys ever seen one - I think it may have been an ?ohio? horn?

I've got one on my Nassau but it is not hooked up, would love to know how it worked. I don't think the mud daubbers that where living in it knew either :D

Captain- it probably doesn't work and is worthless - you should replace it with an electric one......and send me it!!:D

Pretty simple - just a pump and a horn!

Take a pic if you get a chance
