Picked up bow cushions for my '73 center console that fit perfectly for $17 and a 30 minutes drive.

This may be a dumb question, but how do you keep them from flying out of the boat while underway? Velcro?

Good find. I'll up the bid to $21 :P

As they say, they are no dumb questions, just dumb answers.

I'd keep em from blowing away by puttiing em in the cuddy.

$22.00

While the width is fine, the length also fits but extends way up under the top platform about 18". Each cushion has a 4" snap strap along rear, towards the center of boat. Screwed in other part of snap and done. It's not going anywhere. Snug fit left to right, and with the snap strap it could slide rearward about 1 inch.

The cushions were actually about an inch too wide. I removed foam and used electric carving knife to cut a bow shaped 1" notch edge along the bottom, so bottom fits that extra inch, while top material remains taunt.

This was one of those things that makes the wife happy we have a boat. With a Center Console it's mandatory for her.

I actually had my bid set to max out at $250, and would have gladly paid that for these.
