I have a 1978 Cobia Sea Scout with the center console. It did not have a cushion mounted on the front of the console above the front seat/storage area. The other day I had to cut a hole in the front of the console to do some re-wiring as well as mount a new VHF radio. So, I thought the cushion idea would be great to cover the new hole. Question; How could I hang or mount the cushion over the hole? I thought of using strips of velcro but was afraid it might not work. Besides, I'm not sure how well the adhesive would stick to the console. Another thought was to mount some kind of hidden hinges from the top and then velcro the bottom shut or use some sort of snap, latch or something. It is impossible to get to the area from the access doors in the front of the console due to a large gas tank. How do some of the newer model boats have their cushions attached? Any ideas would be appreciated.
