Cornes de Brume Bateau

The foghorn, a powerful warning device

The foghorn is a sound signaling accessory that allows surrounding boats to spot you, thus providing better safety on board your boat. It complements a visual warning such as a turn signal or a distress rocket. Thus, in bad weather or fog, an audible alarm may be more effective than a visual alarm that may not be seen. Like a horn or a whistle, a foghorn serves as a warning when visibility is poor or non-existent.

How does a foghorn work?

There are two types of foghorns: the gas foghorn or the simple mouth foghorn.

The gas foghorn consists of two parts. There is a liquefied gas cartridge, in the form of a bottle and a support to put on it. The system is simple: by pressure of the finger, the liquefied gas leaves the bottle, passes by the horn and produces a sound signal. This type is very effective, offers a very good power and is easily usable. It is hygienic because it does not need to be brought to the mouth and can be used in any circumstance during your navigation in boat.

The second type requires you to blow into the tube which amplifies the sound to produce a loud signal. This alarm is effective but its use can be restrictive if several users are brought to use this product or if it remains too long without being used and washed. However, it is still very effective and does not require refilling.

Our selection of fog horns

Gas or not, here is our selection of fog horns and horns for your boat.

The simplest product is the Plastimo foghorn. It is simple and made of plastic. Lightweight and only 30 cm long, this product can be easily stored in a bag and is an essential safety accessory.

The Trump Foghorn is a foghorn offering a power of more than 100 dB by simple breath. It is its thin plastic membrane which offers this power of sound warning. Available in a compact but equally powerful model, the Plastimo Mini-Trump Adjustable Fog Horn offers small size and small price.

For a liquefied gas foghorn, we suggest our Plastimo Fog Horn. It works by simple pressure of the finger and releases the liquefied gas. Its power is 115 decibel and the refill foghorn can be changed after use.

Finally, for a change, we offer you the Plastimo Whistle ISO 12402-8 compliant. It is a very light and easy to use poypropylene whistle for a price of less than 1€.
