I found it was worth the drive to Kitchener Cushions are going to year 10 this season ... https://www.facebook.com/FrikosUpholsteryLtd/ As an aside I took photos and measurements for all the cushions and e-mailed the document to marine, automotive and furniture upholsterers , not surprisingly

Re: Stus-List Cost to recover cushions - ouch

My settee alone is 8 cushions - 3 bottom, 3 back and 2 ends. The dinette is probably 10 with the table top cushions. I don't have the patience to do 18 cushions, and the Admiral isn't interested. Looks like I need to shop around. I have some friends in the car business. I can see if they have

Hi Joel, I'm curious as to why you spec'd Sunbrella? It's forte is colour-fast after years of sun exposure and it's not the most comfortable fabric to sit on. I suggest talking about proper upholstery fabric when dealing with your supplier. My saloon is done in leather but that might not

Russ, It's what they offered as their standard, and I thought it would be easy to compare prices from different places that way. I'd love leather, but not the price! Joel On Fri, Dec 18, 2015 at 12:45 PM, Russ & Melody via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Hi Joel, > > I'm curious as

Dennis, My cushions came off of Howard's boat when he replaced all of his! My boat pillows are from Home Depot. Didn't know they sold fabric. Heck, probably cheaper to buy patio cushions just for the fabric than buying Sunbrella from a marine outlet! Joel​ On Fri, Dec 18, 2015 at 1:26 PM,

Re: Stus-List Upholsterers in the Toronto area?

Hi, I've been in the process of getting entirely new upholstery done for my 29-2 as it was missing most cushions when I got it. Tina Morgan Designs is doing the work. She does mostly mid-century furniture and seems very skilled. She's only done a couple of boats before mine FWIW. I supplied

Re: Stus-List Cost to recover cushions - ouch

Many of you are fortunate to have all separate removable cushions, bottoms and backs. Touche's dinette and settee backs are single rolled and pleated wraparound units stapled to the cabinetry. I like the look. It would be very pricey to replace because the workman would almost certainly have to

Re: Stus-List Cost to recover cushions - ouch

Sunbrella is pretty pricey. Look at fabrics for patio furniture. Most are a fraction of the cost of Sunbrella. Heck, even Home Depot sells outdoor fabrics. Guess I'm lucky, Touche's cushions are in decent shape. However the pattern is definitely 70's retro. Who knows, in another 40 years it

Re: Stus-List little A hatches on a LF38

I just heard back from the acrylics place — they want $65 each for the lenses for the small galley/head hatches on the LF38. These would come precut, but not predrilled for the hinge and latch castings; you’d need to do those yourself, due to differences in the hatches. These same hatches are

Not sure why anyone would have to come to the boat. All the rolled stuff looks to be stapled along the edges. Just take it to the shop and restaple the new stuff yourself. Joe DB Coquina C 35 MK I with likely the worst cushions in the fleet From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com]

Re: Stus-List Cost to recover cushions - now if cushions could talk

Funny you should say that. One of the "joys" of owning a "storied" boat is, of course, the stories. The Admiral was at a fundraiser a few years back when the conversation steered around to interests and then sailing. An older couple asked the Admiral what boat she sailed on. When she replied

Hello all, boat is coming along, nicely cleaned out on the interior, shore power getting set up. Time to set up the propane bulkhead heater. I was wondering if anyone with a 33 MKI has put a propane locker under the helm seat. I have taken visual measurements and it looks like there should be

Oh, you guys are indeed ancient. My much more modern 1980 version has the awesome beige, orange, and brown tone plaid stuff. It is also better at showing stains, of which there are many. But, as 90 percent of its activity is local racing, the cushions stay in the attic over the ‘carriage house’

> C 35 MK I with likely the worst cushions in the fleet. Is this a challenge? Some of the cushions on Calypso are original from 1970. They are covered in the red, white, blue plaid design common to C of the era. I suspect they survived this long because when the boat was raced locally the

Re: Stus-List Cost to recover cushions - ouch

Yup, the red, white and blue plaid is what Touche' has. I found some extra on the boat and saved it. Came in handy a couple years ago when I had an upholsterer patch some in on the quarterberth cushion. Fabric isn't bad but the stitching gives out. Have gotten a couple cushions re-stitched.

Just had our Christmas parade. Couple boats had lots of lights and generator on deck. Couple years ago I decorated Touche' with a bunch of light strings. We probably had 15-20 strings of lights. We have about half incandescent and half LED strings. I'd added up the wattages on the boxes for

I'm in the San Francisco Bay area and I'm having all the cushions re-covered in Sunbrella material at a local shop for $2,600. I got a list of upholsterers from a shop that sells foam and after calling around found a place that was about $2000 less than all the other estimates. The only
