Destroyer,
Each set of cushions (top and bottom) is a yard of a Sunbrella, 10' of piping and a #5 zipper. So it breaks down like this....

1 yard of Sunbrella $30
10' of piping $10
#5 zipper $4
2x$25 labor $50........= $95 each set

To me it's sounds over priced but that is the cost of material and it usually takes me more then 2 hours to complete a set of cushions. I used the old foam and replace the moisture barrier.

Also I'm not sure Sunbrella would be best for a fishing boat. A high quality vinyl would probably be a better choice. The owner of the boat that I did the cushions for is a cruiser/trawler.

I'm not trying to talk you out of having me do the work but you can get a replacement set of cushions made in china for $70. However I'm not sure what material they use for the cushions.

Just trying to be honest as we are all friends here.

Ok, well, the vinyl seats are still in good condition so I guess I'll just stick with them.

But

The Todd Cooler seat is another story. and that's the seat that I intend to use for my little 16.5 Airslot. I'll take some pics in the next day or so and PM them to you for an estimate

Sounds good. Going to make a cooler cushion for that Camano trawler later next month. I will post a picture when I'm done.
