Hello, our 54DS refurb in Barcelona is continuing well and I am now thinking about cockpit cushions before the start of our return to the UK in April. The boat has 6 of them with their Velcro half step attachments. They still look good but need re covering (preferably not replacing) as some are tired but all are otherwise in good condition. They go the entire length of the cockpit and under the spray hood and in total they are enormous, so it is too big a task for our normal repairer. I don’t mind which country they are re covered in but I am trying to improve on the current £2k quote!
Thanks in advance.

I know it hurts to say this but £2000 is not a bad price to pay, as an option on our yachts 51 the cockpit cushions set us back over 4000€. What isn’t expensive on a boat! Good luck with the refurb!

We have had quite a lot of canvas work done by Cristos and his team at Valencia this winter. Very pleased with quality and cost www.toldomar.es/He has just started offering 10% discount for CA members, sure he will give you a good price too if you mention Jeanneau Owners

Thank you very much to Malcolm P for context, and to JY51 for his practical suggestion. Guys, really appreciate the quick response. I will make contact with Valencia.
As £2k seems a sensible price, then I should reciprocate by mentioning Refit Forum in Port Forum Barcelona who quoted it.
Thanks again
Best
