Jeff, great timing.. as I am about to make all new cushions and gave up and was just going to follow the OEM path... lots of smaller loose cushions was a thought but al ot more money and also they might fly all over the place.. Interesting idea you have... I am trying to come up with a slightly bett...

I power the c-26 with the same suzuki 9.9 four stroke... heavy but smooth running.. what type of prop do you have on her... I swapped teh OEM for one of those huge 3-blade mickey mouse ear props based on a thread on this site in an effort to get more low speed thrust and better reversing.. I got som...
