We have had our horn replaced each year and it strips working in less than a month . The build is a G series 2014.I have checked both connections still no horn. A little frustrated.

The problem (I think) is that the horn is installed up in the starboard side bow just above the pontoon and it catches a lot of spray and wave action. From what I can see, there is no shielding to protect the opening of the horn from catching a mouthful of salt water.
I have had the same issue. When I took delivery of my 2275GCW in April, the horn did not work. The dealer and I assumed it to be water in the horn and I took the boat. It got a little better and then within a week it died completely. The dealer replaced the horn on warranty and it worked for a while. Now it is failing again intermittently.

Must be my cheapy S series, my 4 year reminds me constantly that it works! I thought mine was under the helm with the openings on the side??? Wouldn't be the first time I'd be wrong!
I have never had any problems with my horn. Wonder why some do and some don't. Suspect because I am generally a slow cruiser.
Are those that have reported horn problems speed guys?
Nope ..... Had mine replaced once, and mines sure no speed demon ...
