Hammer, I got a driver side wiper several years ago and never installed it...maybe I'm lazy...I don't know...but every now and then I find myself out chasin' stripers in the rain and it would be nice to have :D...

mine came w/ the boat when it was new and oddly enough it works, I just put on a new blade. Msb...., I dont know if I personally would go through the rigors installing one because IMO they aren't very effective. Given the geometrics, i.e. where the motor has to go, the height and width of the windshield, the sweep of the blade itself and the fact that it only covers about 35% of the glass area....it's pretty much useless.Gotta hunch down and lean forward to see through the "sweep area", not sayin they don't work, just doesn't work to well

What Phester's sayin' kinda goes to why I haven't gotten around to installin'...figured it would be like tryin' to see outta a tank... ::)...

Mine came with a wiper, and I replaced the motor 2 years ago because the old one corroded away. I get plenty of use out of mine when we get caught in downpours. Even though it only clears a small area, I find it veeeerryyy helpful.

I am with Franco!! RainX works like a charm!! even on eyeglasses.
Them wipers are so small and just another thing that break!

Rain X it will work fine for rain water but for salt spray just makes a white smear
