I was not fond of the stock windscreen wiper setup, with the blades parked in your field of view and a mere 45 degree sweep angle. Very happy to learn that the sweep angle could be increased to more than 90 degrees, and that the blade length and angle are fully adjustable as well. I reset our wiper blades to being parked horizontally at the bottom of the windscreen ( similar to an automobile) with the maximum possible sweep angle. This results in much improved forward visibility.

Hi, I'm also not fond of the default setup of the wipers. I'm very interested in how you adjust the wipers to sweep more and to have them horizontal. Any advise is appreciated.

Agree that this is the post to check out. I would just add that on my boat (2023 795 S2) the overall sweep radius of wiper arm is adjustable as well. There is a little flip lever on each wiper arm, allowing you to unlock/ adjust/relock the overall sweep radius of each wiper. I was able to adjust the length of both wipers so that they did not interfere with each other. Both are now are set to “park” at the bottom edge of the windscreen, with the two wiper end tips being about 1/2 inch apart.
