Does anyone know the best place to purchase replacement blades for boat windshield wipers? Mine are in serious need for some replacements.

Thanks guys.

I will also suggest using RainX - works like a champ - probably get away with no even running your wipers.

Tim,
is the blade just a straight blade with the connection in the center?

Find out for sure what your length is Tim. If they are just a straight blade and connect at the center point I can find blades for you. Cost probably is around 10-20 bucks per blade. Alot of of the different boat companies used the same stuff. I just replaced mine last year.

Awesome ed thank you. Next time I go I will measure them again. I've measured them before and I swear they were 8 inches.

Tim,
they may have been replaced before and might be smaller then stock. Since they are the straight blade wiper, take a look at the length of throw from what is on there now. Ask yourself if you can go longer. There are many different sizes of length for that type of wiper blade. So if they are 8's but you could take a 10 or longer I'm pretty sure what ever the length needed can be found. Just let me know next time your checking on your boat.
