Thank you Mark, but it looks like we're on opposite sides of Connecticut . I live in Queens in NYC and sail out of Hempstead Harbor on Long Island. If I hear of any stock cushions being made by someone I'll pass it along.

Teak Restoration

I just bought a 1968 Typhoon, Hull No 155. The hull, sails and rigging all seem to be in great shape, but it looks like the coamings and toe rail haven't seen a drop of teak oil in several years.
