Hey guys!
I am looking for a Bimini/dodger and some cushions for my cockpit. If it can fit a 1978 E27 that would be great. I am located near Marina Del Rey, LA, CA
Im tired of sitting in the sun all day.
Thanks!
Holy cow! just got estimates for new cushions.... instead of blowing $1,600+ dollars, does anyone have an affordable option they've explored. I'm scouring my salvage yards in the area, not hopeful, but would love to find the v-berth and aft quarter berth for my 1977 Ericson 32-2.

Complete interior cushion set from a 1985 Ericson 25+. The cushions are in fair condition, with some fading from years of use. There are no rips or tears in the cushions. This is a great and easy way to significantly upgrade the interior of your boat.
A few pictures of the cushions are...
So the local guy who does this sort of stuff (biminis, cushions, sail repair) told me his closed cell foam manufacturer Burt down and went out of biz. Can't find good material anywhere he claims. Who do I talk to. How big of a project/investment to do it myself? Any advice?
Has anyone replaced the interior cushions? We have a total of 10 that we are looking to be redone, I have the cost for materials and labor but want to make sure we are in the " ballpark" for the quoted price.
We just got an Ericson 27 that needs to have the cushions thrown away. Now we're looking for the most economical way to get a good looking and comfortable set of cusions for the cabin. Some cockpit ones would be great too. Does anyone have some that they would sell?
Looking at replacing these as the ones we have are spent. The boat is for sale but we are taking a 2 week cruise to New England and I cant imagine doing it with the cushions we have. So I have limited time to get them made, leaving July 9th. I want them made with sunbrella tops, mesh bottoms...
I just purchased a 1983 E28+. First boat. The interior cushions are quite worn down and should be replaced. Any suggestions? Is there somewhere I can find the exact dimensions of the cushions, which I assume would make it easier to order new ones? Any advice as to how to go about replacing the...
I read most of the threads on cushions and then visited a local foam shop.
Prices are steep.
Basically the consensus on the weight of the foam seems to be in the neighborhood of 2.5 pounds per square foot. (I think Loren used 2.6)
Next question, what density have others used in the...
I'm going to get the back cushion redone with new fabric; Model E23 1975, I took the screws out from the top, however, it is still stuck on the ends; any tricks, I'm afraid to pull very hard; what's holding the backs?
I also been trying to put pictures of The Red Witch on the site; I'm still...
My 1984 Ericson 381 needs new cushions: Does anyone know the interior manufacturer who made the interior cushions for the Ericsons in So. CAL.???
Or Does anyone know of an interior manufacture that does a good job at reasonable prices in SO.CAL??

Has anyone come up with a good way to secure cockpit cushions in thier boats to keep them from flying around while sailing? We are going to make some for our cockpit but I'd hate to have to keep them below when we are sailing. That's when my rear will need the most comfort!!!
Beige neutral cloth top/vinyl underside - intact cushions for 1970's 'Ericson 35'. These are off my 1975 'Ericson 35' MkII; I've changed them for a different color.
Rip/Tear free; a bit dusty so they should be washed.
Zippers need to be lubed.
Location: my office in San Pedro, California...
Hello everyone,
Im going to recover the cushions on my E29 and Im not sure how to remove the back part of the cushion. Im not sure how its fixed to the boat and I didnt want to force it. Any ideas?
Any recommendations for cockpit cushions? Have looked at 'Bottomsiders' but the cost is not quite in my budget...
Also - what are your thoughts on colors? White (but will get dirty), Navy Blue (but could get hot). What colors hold up over time the best?
Thanks!
Hello Ericson Owners,
When I bought my 1975 E29 it only had 3 cushions in her. They are in bad shape so I am looking to replace them. Does anyone know of a good upolstry shop or cushion service? How about good used cushions? Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thank You,
Wes...
We are redecorating a 1997 E-380 - this is a Pacific Seacraft model - - hull #22. Original cushions are standard dark blue polyester material (same as in the brochure) and are in excellent shape although foam needs replacement due to mold infiltration.
Anyone interested should contact me...
Greetings,
I bought an old Ericson 23 today and am thrilled to pieces. I know it needs cushions, especially in the V berth, and would like to know where to get them in the Long Beach, CA area.
I'd also love sailing tips, club info, anything you have to offer to make learning this new...
Hi everyone
It's winter and I'm working on my usual list of projects to keep "BYE DESIGN", our '78 34T, looking good and performing well. I'm now thinking of tackling the interior cushion upholstery. Currently, the cushions are upholstered in a patterned, velvet-like uphostery ( I'm not sure...
I have a full set of off-white vinyl cockpit cushions, 5 pieces in all, customized to fit the 35-III perfectly. My wife wanted to change the color since we Awlgriped the hull navy blue...
The shop used the internal foam from the former in the new cushions leaving us very usable and almost...
