Cockpit seat cushions Catalina 30

[Trixster]

Greetings,
I could use some cushions for the cockpit. Any recommendations that work and not labeled as "boat or marine" to be more cost effective?
Thank you

Options are limited.
I don't understand why power boaters get to have cushions that remain in place while we have to put up with fiberglass butt. I used to come home from sailing races and my wife would ask if I was beaten by a bag of oranges. I know about sliding cushions being a hazard, and cushions being a danger to footing in the cockpit but jeez why do sailors have to suffer. On a six day ocean trip I was fine with the T-Storms, the seas, the lack of sleep, but at some point I just wanted something comfortable to sit on.
Closed cell cushions are pretty hard. Better than fiberglass but only OK for a weekend or less. I don't know why we can't do better.

Cockpit cushions need to fit the cockpit seats to be of any use, meaning the cushions need to be designed to fit a Catalina 30, meaning it'll be pretty hard to find something non-marine. My favorite is a sunbrella type fabric over closed cell foam. I don't think there is a cheap solution that would be satisfactory unless you want to make them yourself.
