Author	Topic:   I got another HUGE raise
Feejer	posted 06-16-2009 07:37 PM ET (US)         Thanks to Raymond Martin of Martin Marine Design. Ray designed a custom RPS cushion for me again. This time for my Dauntless 180. It replaces the standard 3 inch cushion. When sitting my line of sight was just in par with the grab rail which bugged the heck out of me. The new cushion is 6 inches taller. Not only is it great for sitting on but it also works very well as a leaning post. This thing is a beast. http://albums.phanfare.com/8140341/4083970#imageID=72142047

Feejer	posted 06-17-2009 07:39 AM ET (US)             Raymond's workmanship is second to none. If anyone is thinking about having any upholstery or aluminum work done I highly recommend him. Martin Marine Design 932 Old Charleston HWY Hardeeville, SC 29927 Shop: (843) 784-6110

Feejer	posted 06-17-2009 09:41 AM ET (US)             From $90.00 up, all depends what you buy http://www.seadekstore.com/helmstationpads.aspx

SC Joe	posted 06-17-2009 11:14 AM ET (US)             I agree about the workmanship quality; I purchased the thicker cushion Feejer had on his montauk. If I compare it to the Whaler cushion, aside from the thickness and lack of gray piping, I can't tell a difference in quality.
hauptjm	posted 06-17-2009 01:04 PM ET (US)          Wow, now that's a big a-- cushion! Or is it a cushion for a big a--? Just kidding! How does the extra weight of the cushion impact the hinge and its fasteners? I'll bet it's very comfortable.
Feejer	posted 06-17-2009 01:25 PM ET (US)             The cushion is very comfortable. The extra weight is nothing, I don't have any issues opening the top at all. The snaps are in the same place as before. A few along the front and then 2 under the cushion on the rear
