We are looking at ordering cushions for our cockpit. The 2 types we have found are Bottom Siders and Sunshure. Any recommendations or pros and cons of one versus another? We have a dog so are looking for durability and comfort as well. Thanks!

I like the Bottomsiders - just one word of advice - choose a lighter color - the dark ones heat up fast! The other major consideration (not to get Bottomsiders) is your dog's claws. As the cushions are just foam, your pooch might end up putting a hole in them, etc...

There are a number of dog owners on this site (see the other thread about sailing with dogs) - and I'm sure some of them will be happy to comment...

Good luck!
