Re: Manual windshield wiper

Any help on this one -- I would like to find this wiper becuase I dont feel like doing the wiring on an elctric one. I only need a wiper once in a while -so the manual one will come in handy<br /><br />Thanks<br />Cool It

Didn't see one in iboats mall, but there's one here. <br /><br /> manual wiper <br /><br />A clean windshield and a coating of Rain-X will help too.<br /><br />Happy Boating.

Re: Manual windshield wiper

Thanks roscoe-- I just checked my catalog and it is there I must have missed it . I think that wiil do the trick. I do use rain-x which helps but I figure for the colder months when I have the canvas enclosure on I will need the windshield wiper<br /><br />Thanks again- I also thought there was one that clips on without having to drill a hole- I might still try to search for that a little longer before I go for this one.<br /><br />Cool It

I doubt that one that attaches with clips would work. You need a good bit pf downward pressure on the blade to clean effectively - just like a car.
