The v-berth cushions in my yacht are only a few months old. I had them made from
4" firm (green) foam and vinyl (matching mauve like the settee cushions.)
The settee cushions are made from the same vinyl material and firm green foam but
the foam is three-inches thick.
Rhombozoidal????
I had four cushions on the settee area when I bought the boat.
They were made to lay down on the table and make one double-sized bed.
Put your table down on the settee seats and the backs of the forward and
aft settee seats should go in the middle on the table. The ends of the two
cushions in the middle should acquire the slant the table has. These can
be used as the backs of the settees when the table is in the up position.
They won't fit quite right but turn the slanted side towards the side
of the boat and they won't be noticed.
Good luck.

Gracious Captain Neal,
Yesterday I removed the head door and the bulkhead between the head and
v-berth. As my boat is winterized an hour away from my home, I brought all
of my cushions home so my upholsterer could measure them.
My questions are as follows:
My old upholstery is 3" foam. I am thinking of putting 4" foam on seats and
3" foam on backs. What is your recommendation?
Also, one of the setee seats is not a perfect rectangle. There is a single
rhombozoidal end to one our help.of the portside seats (I believe it is the
foreward of the two) Which is the rhombozoidal cushion on that seat - is it
the back or the seat itself?
Thank you in advance for y
