Default Windshield wiper blade for 3700

Any idea if an automotive wiper blade will fit on the arm on a 3700 SY?
Were OEM blades made by marinco?

I am not at the boat and don't recall the length but I get regular replacement blades at the local auto parts store.

It is 30" and most auto stores like Advanced Auto, AutoZone, ect. don't carry it.

The factory wiper arm and blade is in fact Marinco like I suspected. They have it in their online catalog and you can special order it through many of your local boating supply stores such as West Marine.

not sure if wiper blades and the arm are worth having installed. The wipers just get destroyed in the sun and salt. You may need to replace every year. In addition, our wipers simply get in the way when using the cockpit cover so not worth their weight. Unless you truly use them, you may consider removing them.

They are worth it for me! I use my wiper a lot. So much so in fact, I am planning on adding an intermittent circuit to it.
