Thanks for the great feedback. Based upon what I read, I called my local dealer who quoted me two prices, one for a bow filler forward ($115.77) and one for a bow filler aft ($121.61). Needless to say, I was a bit shocked by the total price. He indicated that both are necessary but that seems like a lot for two small cushions. Can anyone with an H190 or knowledge thereof, verify that this is a two piece set-up? Thanks!

Guppy.

I have an 06 H190 and got mine for 155 shipped from wInnisquam marine 2 weeks ago. That price is a rip off!

I just picked mine up! 155 shipped and awesome investment on my h190. . . Buy them!



I have a 220. Did you buy them through Four Winns? I was looking to get them also but when I checked with my FW dealer the cushions were very expensive. Is there another way to get this type of cushion filler?

I want them for my 03 180, but no one seems to have them.

Like most of the other responses; my filler cushions never leave my boat. Wife and kids love camping out on the bow. Only thing i don't like is removing them to put the boat cover support pole in place, but obviously that's not a big deal.

My wife ordered them but they are really expensive two cushions plus the two tubes underneath were ridiculous! I believe they were like 400 dollars. She said she wanted them since the previous boat we were looking to buy was a 06 21 Caravelle interceptor with the bow cushions it had the 5.0 so I really wanted the Four Winns H220SS with the 5.7 300 so I opted for the bow cushions and purchased the FW H220SS do you guys think the Caravelle Interceptor is a better boat? I thought it was a little small. If you want to see a video of my soon to be delivered girl go on youtube and search for Four Winns H220SS and she is the third video she is yellow and white and she is in Mooresville North Carolina hopefully she will be dropped off this weekend. Patiently awaiting my first boat let me know what you all think nice to be part of this Forum. Joe from Miami 8) BTW Drnovascotia I would have saved close to 200 dollars if I would've read your post sooner. Not only do they have the bow cushions cheaper than anyone that I have talked to but they also sell the side SS decals that I ordered for my boat from the dealer for about 180 dollars less. Terry called me back with a quote on my parts about five minutes after I called him. wInnisquam marine I googled it and it turns out they have a bunch of stuff for these FW boats. I will definitely be here asking questions for any future purchases for my boat. FIrst time owner here and it's nice to be part of the boating brotherhood.

Nice Boat Jafo. Looks like the guy had a good time taking it for a spin.

It appears that is has a new raw water pump on it (it is sort of brass colored instead of red like the rest of the engine). That's a $350 part.

Related to the original question, does anyone have a source for the folding legs that attach to the bow filler cushion supports? One of mine is broken and I can see that it is made by Garelick, but cannot find it on their site, and would rather not have to purchase through FW if possible....

This is the part I'm referring to:

Is that what comes with the boat originally? Or is it to add to the performance? I feel like I jumped in the deep end of the pool lol my first boat and everyone is telling me it is not really a starter boat. I say the heck with them I'm glad it's new because another 350 would break me into the second phase of break out another thousand after I added the gps and radio bow cushions and new decals which are backordered that was a more than a grand in the first phase. At least she is on her way home today. I am following her on gps and she is driving into South Carolina at this time. I love real time gps tracking. Safe boating to all. 8) Joe in Miami

I would give this place a try. I spoke to Terry when I called and he gave me a quote much cheaper than the dealer unfortunately I found the website after I had already ordered from the factory. Save some money I wish I had.

If my 2007 H 180 hadn't come with the bow filler cushions, I would have just made them myself. Cut some 3/4 ply and you can get the foam and marine vinyl here http://www.diyupholsterysupply.com
I'd estimate both cushions could be DIY'd for well under $100, maybe closer to $80.
I'm planning on making a seat bolster for starboard seat since mine didn't come with that option (bought used). Will provide pics of construction etc when I get it done (if anyone's interested).
