I have recently replaced the RPS seat with a Specialy Marine cushion and am hoping to find one that would be a close match to either that or the Yeti's cushion which is a little brighter shade of white. Any help in finding a retailer would be appreciated. Thanks, Darren Edited by darrenmolder on 05/12/12 - 3:50 PM

Specialty shows the rod cushions but I can't speak for their color or quality having not purchased from them. http://www.specialtymarine.com/BOSTON...S-p75.html 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

The side flaps are longer to span the rod holders if installed. The download section has instructions for fabricating the rod holders. There is also a drawing for making the wood cleats for the holders. Are you looking for just the cushions, do you have the rod holders or looking for them as well? 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

The Rod Holders and Rod Holder Cushions were used together, or, the rod holders were used without the cushions.. The cushions could never be used by themselves without modifying them.
