Just purchased a new to me 09 Fisherman 222; looking for new or used bow cushions. Any insight is appreciated. Rough Estimate cost to make new? Finding them used seems like a shot in the dark - but figure I will ask and continue to look. Thanks.

Ask around for a few marine canvas/upholstery shops in your area. Most will measure and make the cushions to fit the area. Several manufacturers made them for GW in the past (Wise, Garelick and now Llebroc) but won't/can't sell direct.

I have an 2002 Fisherman. Did you find a place that will replace the cushions? Thanks

Do you have the old cushions?
That will make it easier for a marine upholsterer to quote replacements new ones. I have no idea what the shops are getting these days but I bet it isn't cheap.
Costs can be managed in some cases by getting flat vinyl instead of pleated and flat seams without welting if you have that feature. Don't cheap up on the vinyl material though

I used Ken Mercier, Always Undercover Marine Canvas and Upholstery, in Mashpee to redo all of the vinyl on my 2001 192 a few years ago. He did excellent work and was very reasonable. Boat looks like new with the work he did. His number is 508-510-9320.
