replacing fabric in cuddy cabin ?

[fishone]

I am replacing the cuddy cabin fabric ( cushion covers ) in my seafarer. Can anyone give me a reccomendation on what fabric to use. I was looking at a sunbrella fabric but the seamstress said its overkill not to mention expensive. I guess it just needs to be mildew resistant, the original fabric from grady was very durable but started to show its age.
Thanks

I just replaced mine with Sunbrella. $208 for the sunbrella and I have enough to do it again + cushions. Luckily my wife sews and reused the bottom fabric. Minimal cost for the sunbrella and it will last....

Hi - Check this place out, I just used them for material to do coaming bolsters on my 268 Islander.

I used Sunbrella - there are so many patterns and mildew and drit are easy to control. If money were no object I would use Ultra Leather.
