[Rhodes22-list] Electric Horn

[FredkLange at aol.com]

Rummy,

My last close encounter was with a Coast Guard SARV with a new recruit at the 
helm.  From a dead stop, she gunned her twin 250 HP outboards and, without 
looking, cut sharp to port into my right of way.  She nearly lost two crew 
overboard and plowed through my boat.

Since all the CG boats are armed now with at least a machine gun, I think I 
need something that would give me more of a preemptive advantage than a spud 
gun.
