Captain’s Call Exhaust question

Post by Kabright »

I have a 2017 R3 and the dash has a button labeled for Captain’s Call, but there aren’t any thru hull ports and the sound doesn’t change when the button is engaged. Is this normal that Cobalt would have the Captain’s Call button on the dash, but there not be a Captain’s Call exhaust system installed?

It wasn't uncommon for Surf models to have the button but not the captain's call exhaust, according to other members.

My boat also has the Captains Call on the toggle switch panel, but no actual Captains Call installed. I am 90% sure that the wiring for the Captains Call is also there.
