Check with the OEM manufacturer of the seat for a custom-fit cushion. Boston Whaler often used seats made by SPRINGFIELD.

QUESTION TO THE OP: Are you asking about boat canvas, such as a Flying Top? If so, see the recommended vendors in the REFERENCE section at

QUESTION TO THE OP: Are you asking about a boarding ladder? Please clarify what sort of ladder you are seeking a vendor or source. If asking about a boarding ladder, do you want a ladder that is permanently installed? Installed at the transom? Installed on the gunwales? Not installed permanently? In order to offer advice you must give much greater detail than "a steel ladder."

Please give readers an idea of the budget you have in mind for each of the three items, the cushion, the ladder, and the canopy. Having some idea of the range of prices you would entertain will help readers offer advice to you about where to find suitable products.

Ladder to enter boat from the water. Would be open to something permanently installed on the back or something the hangs over the side

Visit a West Marine Store. They sell a number of boarding ladders from various makers in various designs. By seeing the products in person you can get a better sense of how they will work and fit onto your boat hull.
That part of a boat hull "on the back" is called the transom. Transom-mounted swim ladders are often mounted under a small boarding platform. The transom is about the only place on a Boston Whaler hull where a strong attachment point exists for a swim boarding ladder, and then only in the portion of the transom with reinforcement, usually in the center where the engine is mounted. Without a strong reinforced attachment point, the Unibond hull of a Boston Whaler boat won't be strong enough to hold fasteners for a swim boarding ladder.

By canopy, I assume you mean a Bimini top. I bought one from Amazon for only $110. It is not high quality, but it is dirt cheap. It was easy to install on top of the side rails, and the extra inches of height are useful. 1 am 6-feet 2-inches and just barely fit under it.
