Just finished stuffing the new cushion covers I made last week. Ill have pics to post when i put them on the boat this weekend. I tried out the vacuum cleaner method that sailrite uses to shrink the foam before insertion . What a difference! made the job a lot easier. I used some lightweight plastic painters tarp that i found on amazon. Less expesensive then the plastic film that sailrite sells. I did it as a 2 person job. Had my boy hold the vacuum nozzle while I slipped in the foam..
