We still have Papoose's previous owner's cushions. If this stuff ever
needed to be replaced, we'd look high and low for the same. It has
been amazingly durable and we think it is very good looking. If you
need, I'll try to get a good photo to email, but didn't you know the
Colby's?

The email I have for them no longer works and I haven't had a need to
call them so I'll text message the phone number I have to you. If it
still works, maybe they remember the details of that fabric.

I seem to recall discussing this a few years ago but here is our experience:
1. Cushions-  we replaced the padded seat backs with custom paneled doors, painted off white, and put a bunch of throw pillows around. Lots more room to sleep on the settee's and the pillows can be placed as needed for meals and sleeping.
2. Dodger-Our first had snaps on the cabin top and hatch cover...ok...but always got stepped on while flaking the main, 2nd dodger has a batten in a pocket over the hatch with snaps on either side...just as tight and no snaps to step on.
Ptarmigan is in Mystic and will be uncovered in a few weeks if anyone wants to see the above,
Craig & Amy
Can also send pics if interested of the interior.
