Carioca those cushions look great. Did you buy new foam or just reuse the old? We are still working on ours and we had to get new foam.

Nice work,
Teresa did ours in Sunbrella and high decity foam.
Used 1 inch closed cell foam in cockpit and on top of 3 inch cusions below so water doesn't go thru.

That is an awesome job! Those colors look pretty sharp too. I'll be sending you my cushions for new covers :P (if I can get the zippers unstuck! :x )
