Description

Custom boat cushions for bow seats, cockpit benches, helm seats, sun pads and cabin berths, made to your boat's exact shape in Sunbrella Horizon marine-grade vinyl. Horizon is built for salt, sun and spray, and pairs with Dry Fast foam that drains water through the cushion so it dries fast after a wave or a wash-down.

How to measure

  • Make a paper or cardboard template of each seat and mark the bow-facing side.
  • Measure each straight edge and the thickness you want; 3" to 4" is typical for seats.
  • Note snaps, cutouts for cleats or cup holders, and hinged lids.
  • Send photos of the template with a tape measure in frame along with your quote.

Fabric

Foam and fill options

All foam is made in the USA and covered by a 3-year warranty.

  • High Density foam: medium feel for everyday seating. 2.8 lb/ft³ density, 35 lb ILD, about 16-year life.
  • Luxury foam: firm, best for dining seats 1″ to 3″ thick. 2.8 lb/ft³, 50 lb ILD, about 16-year life.
  • Dry Fast foam: open-cell foam that drains water, best for outdoor and marine use. 1.8 lb/ft³, 60 lb ILD, 5–8 year life.
  • Super Soft foam: for back cushions only. 1.2 lb/ft³, 12 lb ILD.
  • Dacron wrap: a 1″ polyester fiber layer around the foam for a fuller, rounded look. Do not reduce your measurements for it.
  • Fiber fill: soft polyester fill for loose back cushions.

How to order

  1. Choose your fabric above, then click Start Your Custom Order.
  2. Enter your measurements in inches (rounded up to the nearest 1/4″), foam, thickness, piping and ties in the notes.
  3. We confirm the price and specs by email before we cut anything.

Foam up to 6″ is one solid piece; 6″ to 8″ is two pieces bonded at no extra charge. For thicker or layered cushions, contact us. Tolerance is ±1″ on length and width and ±1/2″ on thickness. Ships in about 2 weeks for in-stock fabrics, 4 weeks otherwise, with free shipping.

Questions

Can you make sun pads for my boat?

Yes. Send the outline of the deck area and we make a sun pad in one or more sections.

Is Horizon vinyl better than fabric for a boat?

For seats that get wet and salty, yes. Horizon wipes clean and resists mildew and UV.

Do you add snaps?

Add snap locations in the quote notes, or we can leave tabs for you to fit snaps on board.

How to measure

Seat cushions

Measure the seat side to side and front to back, between arms if there are any. Round up to the nearest ¼″. For a tapered seat, measure the front and back widths.

Back cushions

Measure from the seat to where you want the cushion to stop. Width is usually the same as the seat.

Chaise and Adirondack

Measure the full length laid flat, then the back section from the top to the hinge point where the back rest bends.

Covers only

Measure your foam, not the old cover. We cut the cover to fit snugly.

Pillows

Order the cover the size of your insert. Our micro-fibre inserts are sized to fill the cover.

Curtains

Panel width: add the panels up to 1½–2× the opening. Length: from the rod (or top of the tab) to where the hem should land.

Odd shape? Tick “unique shape” and send a paper template after you order. Questions: operation@fabricakraft.com.
