Default Re: Windshield wipers?

The major problem with standard automotive wiper motors is that they are set up for remote mounting under the cowling where they actuate a set of linked arms. In my V-20 these linked arms would cross the passway to the bow. You also have the issue of of the arc of operation. Most car wipers operate through a range of 90 degrees or more. The V-20 needs an arc of 30 to 45 degrees. I can live with a wiper on the right only. So far I've only found one unit on the net and it's $179 just for the motor unit! I take the boat to work whenever possible. The company buys the gas as I'm transporting other workers as well. Not coming home because it's pouring rain is not a viable option. BD
