I’m pleasantly surprised that my boat partners approve of the new, Sloof Lirpa boat cushions. David says he loves the color. And Peter, … well, Peter would take any color, as long as the cushions were new and mildew-free.
Pink and gray do go pretty well together.
The extra pink fabric I have remaining could be used for cockpit cushions, a sail cover, or even some sailing jackets. The fabric has the “Sloof Lirpa” label on it, but I was thinking I could stitch our boat name, “Horizen,” over it. Too bad it’s too heavy to make a spinnaker out of it.
It’s fitting that I completed the cushion job today. I got into work this morning and immediately got a pink slip. The economy is so bad, it has hit everyone!
Oh, well. Perhaps I can use the boat for a shop selling Avon or Mary Kay Cosmetics? Or maybe those pink items that raise funds for the American Cancer Society?

From topsides, with my rose-colored glasses in the snow, these look great. I am disappointed you didn’t also do the genoa UV cover to match. RE: your idea to name the boat “Pinkos” I am good with that, too. TT
