28te Wipers - Which Pantographic arms and which Blades?

Post by FairWindRob »

Firstly, I'd like to introduce myself as a new owner of an '03 28te engine box model. Formerly named Prana, and now called Proletariat, we're located in Narragansett Bay. I spent a fair amount of time browsing through this forum during my boat search, and have already been immensely helped by the vast amount of information here. Thanks to all of you that have taken the time to share all of your tips about Albins!

I've read through several threads concerning wiper upgrades and on my boat it seems like they've been started at least... Photos are attached below, but the installation for pantograph wiper arms has been done, except I have two different styles of wiper arms, and the previous owner has taped up the "second" arm on two of the wipers. Photos are attached below.

Rather than try to get these old arms working properly and deal with the two different styles of arm I would much rather replace all three arms and all three blades with something new and install them correctly so I am starting fresh.

One thing I couldn't find in previous threads here is a specific recommendation on the type and size of arms to get as well as the type and size of blades to get and I'm hoping that some of you that have made the switch to pantographic arms can make a recommendation. Any arm and balde recommendations from those of you in the know?

Thanks again!
