You can get them made at any canvas shop, but be prepared to pay. Canvas shops are costly. To save money, make your own template out of plywood, attach your own cushion to it and then simply take it to the canvas shop and have them wrap it. Will save you some money.

maybe a carpet country store would be able to make some cushions. Ive seen they have some good vinyl or a outdoor fabric. could be less than a canvas shop they are always high. Find a mom and pop store they might just make you a deal. Make it as easy as you can for them, make a temp. from paper and put it on light pine find some foam. Hell at this point you can do it yourself.

MJ, my kids spend all there time down there! Got the little portable DVD player. They can sit straight up with a little headroom. Have to have that center flat removed so they have a place for their feet. The newer V-20's and V-21's have slightly more headroom than my '73 and probably your '75. Perfect for kids or drunk daddy's ;D

I still have small children 10 and 12m the wife wants a place semi comfotable to get out of bad weather when it sneaks up on us. I had rather have the storage room or get creative but for now I have to make as comfortable as possible.

Bought a v20 down in delaware that was listed on E bay that no one wanted. Bought the boat a blown motor and a karavan trailer for $ 400.00. Sold the boat for $120.00. Bought parts from Karavan for $ 100.00 to repair trailer. The boat came with a nice set of cushions for the V berth which I put into my 76 IO v20 if your interested will send you the dimentions so you can have a set made
