wipers for CD28 cruiser

Post by Fred Simon »

WE have a CD 28 power boat and we need replacement windshield wipers i.e.the kind that have two separate arms and one blade. These are hard to find so if any one can help with this problem we will appreciate any help.

A friend needed to replace wipers on his powerboat he used either bus or truck wiper motors and arms. You might consider this and check at your local NAPA store.

Fred -

I don't know what make your wipers are - I think once you identify the maker and the blade length, you can find replacements.

I installed the wipers on my CD 30 powerboat when I put in the lower helm station. I used AFI wipers with pantograph arms. West Marine was able to special order the blades for me. If your wipers are AFI, you could also try calling them directly - I don't have a number for them but they are just north of here in Sonoma County - in Napa, I think - try information for area code 707.

Good luck,
