Getting around to working on my dual trumpet horns mounted in the starboard anchor locker. Originally I thought the easiest access would be to pull the boat bow forward into the slip and stand on the dock and bend over into the locker. However, after installing an anchor stop today, it looks easier to lay on the bow to access them. I replaced the little compressor last year to no avail. The horns look gunky and after reading what I can find on here, I think the solution is to remove them, disassemble, and clean them good.
My first question is this….the horns are each mounted in what looks like a black plastic square. There is a screw in each corner and each horn is mounted 45 degrees to each black square. In this configuration, the 4th screw is behind the horn and inaccessible unless….when I remove the tubing for the air, will the horn turn or rotate in the black plate? Any advice or experiences may save this from being an all day job.
Thanks,
Bennett
