Thanks to Raymond Martin of Martin Marine Design. Ray designed a custom RPS cushion for me again. This time for my Dauntless 180. It replaces the standard 3 inch cushion. When sitting my line of sight was just in par with the grab rail which bugged the heck out of me. The new cushion is 6 inches taller. Not only is it great for sitting on but it also works very well as a leaning post. This thing is a beast.

GREAT!!!

This was the second cushion Raymond made for me. The 1st for my 170 was 5 inches thick. This is a total of 9 inches. My line of site is perfect. It very comfortable to sit on.

That's a beautiful piece of wok. I'd like a fatter bow cushion as the kids complain of fractured ribs (cry babies!) whilst hanging on to the rails. Has he a website and any idea of prices? My new motor is consuming everything for now so I won't be buying this year. Can't wait to get back out there.

Besides that great looking seat I notice you've got a great looking Whaler matt. Could you share where you got that from?
