yup ... and make sure you don't get the kind sold to me by
MW Marine. They bolted the darn things directly to my transom!! No frame, no nothing. Hunks of plexiglass bolted right to my boat!!!! I was speechless when I saw that!! I had specifically asked for Wave Wackers.
The Wave Wacker frame bolts to the transom, but the wackers themselves have set screws to allow insertion and removal from the frame.
A buddy put them on his boat and he said they came with template exactly for his boat model. It took him an hour to install them. If I recall correctly, they were about $200.

Check out Whitecaps, they cost less and are great quality, I have put them on 2 different rigs, Brian lives in Prior Lake, his website is in the products listing, I think it Whitecaps.com.

Moreyes ... I just checked www.whitecaps.com and found it to be a chimney caps place. I am not sure if it is your buddy or not. I will try the products section ... if I buy a new boat I want to put something like wavewackers on it.
And, MW MARINE will NOT be the source of my new boat!!!

You won't be disappointed. Brian is good guy that has built this business, as most do, with pride and hard work.
I was fishing walleyes on Canyon Lake in Arizona a few years back, out from where an old guy was shore fishing. As I backtrolled by him, he hollered in a southern drawl, "sooooonnnn, how come you got your windshield on the back of the boat?"
