Boats in great shape however the horn does not work and I would like to fix it...Can anyone provide the type of horn or how to go about replacing this? Also looking to add a knob on the steering wheel. Any recommendations on knobs? Is there a certain type I need to buy to fit my steering wheel? Thanks for any help!

Aside - Garris - The handheld are very important in the fog. Saved my bacon more than once. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

Ridiculous. I prefer the offset type, installed with the spinner on the inside of the wheel to protect your...thigh. I had this on my last 2 boats. https://www.go2marine.com/sea-dog-ste...teel-nylon Edited by Phil T on 05/09/20 - 11:59 AM 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

It is extremely high quality and, as Phil indicates, is correctly done with the knob inset off the steering wheel rim. I have been using one on my Outrage 25 and it is excellent. Not cheap, but well worth the money. 15-1/2" diameter is required, along with a separately purchased center nut depending on whether you have mechanical or hydraulic steering (different thread size). Whaler sells a nut with their logo on it if desired. http://shop.schmittongaromarine.com/s...4-34t.html
