Hi Al, This may be a bit late , but a few years I replaced all my interior cushions (actually 10 years ago) . I took photos of every cushion on the boat and put them in a word document along with the measurements for each cushion . I sent the document to every upholsterer I could find with an e-mail address, marine automotive, furniture etc. Got a response from a upholsterer specializing restaurant furniture (?) he was thousands less than any marine outfit. The upholsterer also had good prices on Ultraleather (and a few competitor products) They suggested I use mesh on the backs of cushions (like on outdoor lawn furniture) to save some money and allow better breathing , they still look great. The interesting thing for you Toronto area readers , the guy is in Kitchener ... a few blocks from where I was living.

I recently got an estimate from a local marine canvas shop for replacement of all the fabric (retaining the original foam) using the lowest cost sunbrella material. I was surprised to see it was over $4000 for the job, and over $6000 to replace the foam as well. I would appreciate any suggestions for alternative ways to go on upgrading the interior upholstery. Thanks in advance.
