I need new windshield vipers for my 1983 C-dory classic 22. The complete set, motor and all. Any advise? Thank you
 
Once you figure it out maybe I'll put them on my 1982 classic!

ps if you check my threads I already asked a similar question
 
I put a pair on the "C-Farer" about 5 years ago. They drive me nuts (Not a long trip.) I think I bought the ones that run around $100 apiece. They work OK, but they make a nasty grinding sound when they're on. If I had the dough, I'd replace them with the expensive ones that the factory installs.

Bob,
If you're asking about the wipers on C-FARER, the're on the bottom. I just took out the manual wipers on the stbd and center windows and used the same holes for the arms on the new ones.

Welcome Siku. Kaktovik (Barter Island) is a great place for a c dory. Any chance it is used for Inupiat whale hunts? My 22 uses Afi 1000 80 degree 16 inch blades. Getting them to you will be interesting. Order online at Defender or West Marine. I trust there is still a regular flight into the station there. I passed the island years back in a small motor sailor and the lights of the hamlet on the horizon were the only sign of other people we'd seen for a long time. Since back at Lonely where we'd seen some hunters. George :thup
 
Thank you, George. May be AFI-1000 Wiper kit from West Marine will be my best option. The wiper I have is very noisy.
Siko has been a whaling boat for many years. I bought it from whaling captain Joe Kaleak in 2008. He caught 3 bowhead whale with this boat. I use Siku for taking people out viewing polar bears. See www.kaktoviktours.com. Thank you for your advice!
