I'm refreshing a '87 Manatee 18 ft. cuddy. It has a Water Bonnet windshield with side vent (wing) windows. I'm looking to replace the adjuster arms with the original style. They were sold under the brand name "Stern Safe", model WB-11. I saw them online (ebay seller) about 2 years ago but didnt buy then, not knowing if I was keeping the boat or not.
I can't seem to find them anywhere now. Anybody have suggestions for me to try? Maybe there are some collecting dust at your local marina / ship store?
I've tried a pair of Taylor Made generic arms but they pivot the wrong way, 90* off, at the window. SeaDog and SeaSense adjusters look like they will have the same problem.
The fixed part, or base, mounts to the upright window frame channel on the ones I need, the generic replacements mount on the bottom horizontal frame channel.
Thanks in advance for your help.
