Both for the foam and to upholster it, happy to use two different suppliers if works out cheaper than an all in one solution, as I will probably supply the fabric.
In essex preferably but kent or suffolk is driveable, and I have plentyof reasons to go go to either so thats ok too.
Thank you.

Try VJS Leisure at VJS Marine and Leisure .Had cockpit cushions made by Venessa some years ago, cushion still perfect after 10 years. Will come to boat to measure with full swatches of material for choice of fabric. Surprisingly good on price too. They did sail out of Shotley, may still do.

I got my foam from Mead Foam in Stock Road, Southend. This was fit existing covers - I took the old foam for him to size from. I got half memory and half ordinary.
Can’t help you on covers as mine are original 1988 and still in good shape.

They sold the boat a while back, but i'd certainly call Vanessa about upholstery.

I tried the email address from Vanessa's website but it cam e back as no longer in use and the same with the mobile number, so it may be she has retired?

Nope, I just spoke to her on that mobile number and arramged for her to come and template and quote, so she is still going.
Thanks all.

Good to hear Venessa still going strong. Say Hi from Peter and Viv from Dectina, and Timmy still using the personalised cushion cover she made for him.
