Default warning horn

The manual says there is a warning horn, but says it could be under the
dash, or in the control box. I will look for it later this week when it
quits raining. I just want to find it and make sure it is working to be on
the safe side.
Thanks Tom

The only engine horn it would have would be an overheat horn and to be
honest I don't recall that engine having an overheat horn. Someone else

may
remember different.

I will go out and work some more when it quits raining. I had thought

about
sounding the horn, but I do think that what i have the picture of is the
boat horn.
I havn't heard any horns when i turn the ignition on, but I did try the

boat
horn when i bought the boat. It worked, but I didn;t really pay any
attention as to where the sound came from. I will find out more when the
weather clears up.
Thanks for your help and thoughts...

Looks to me like the horn for the boat itself (like a car horn).

this may sound stupid, but why not put your ear there and blow your
horn and see if that is where the sound is comming from. that way you
can eliminate or confirm that it is the boat horn.
my experience with hot horns (and it is not worth much) is that on
some boats they go off for a second when you start the boat, like the
lights on your car dashboard to show that they still work, and on some
boats the hot horn only goes off when your engine is overheating.
my other question is, if you can not trace a colored wire back to it's
source, why do you want to know what it is? remember murphy's law
about if it ain't broke, don't fix it. you must be like me, I can't
help myself, always wanting to learn about things, but not really
there yet. good luck and enjoy boating along with the rest of us.
