I have cushions for a Catalina 25 in pristine condition (traditional interior) that I am trying to unload. Please let me know if anyone is interest.

Charlie, Are they 1980s originals in plaid? Or more recently updated cushions?
Photos?

The original C25 plaid was what most of the cushions were upholstered with in my c25.. but there were many holes so I had them redone .. which was pricey… I would have rather had the retro plaid if it would have been in decent shape. So my timing sucks.. but I’m curious what you want for them? Shipping cost will be no joke.

They are not the original plaid. They are dark blue and in good shape. Make an offer.

Very hard to sell without posting photos of how they look. On the Forum, the “Testing” Section describes how to post photos but may be a bit confusing. Hard to post a photo unless you already have the photos on a website - that way, the photo has an internet link, then the Forum instructions how to post a photo will work. If still having problems or looking for a work-around, ……you could indicate if anyone interested in a nice set of cushions, they could email you for additional info including photos which you can easily attach/send via email.
Also recommend post your cushions for sale in the “Swap Meet” Section.

I replaced my cushions (interior and exterior) about 5 years ago utilizing a local upholsterer that had experience replacing cushions in cars and boats. It was very expensive ($1000s of dollars). I was very happy with how they came out. If yours are in very good condition and the price is right, they should sell!

You can always post the photos on a public photo-sharing site like Amazon photos. Then just post the raw links here.
Not neat or elegant but it’ll get the job done.

As did Larry, I replaced my cushions years ago and it was expensive. If yours are in as good condition as you say they are a real find for any C-25 traditional interior owner, especially if they reside in New England and avoid freight by picking them up!

While I hestitate to suggest this, you can always create a Craigslist listing under an alias and post the pictures there. Then, you can post the listing here so folks could see the photos and contact you through this forum. If anybody tried to contact you through the CL listing directly, you would be smart to ignore them. You’re most likely to be contacted by a scam artist via Craigslist than here. You could also use FB marketplace, however, for folks like myself who don’t participate, you could lose a few potential customers.
