I got these a few weeks ago, Wiley X safety glasses ($50) but had prescription lenses installed (another $250). I used them for biking over the weekend and was surprised to find they came with two straps (a standard strap the mounts to the end of the arms) and an elastic adjustable band that mounts to the sides of the arms. The latter worked great and since the lenses and frames wrap around and have a splash / sweat guard I think they will be perfect for boating, particularly tubing and riding Waverunners. The only function missing is that they do not float.

Mine are not but I don’t recall there being any restrictions regarding getting polarized lenses for the Wiley x frames.
