Coaming Bolster
Has anyone fabricated their own coaming bolsters ? I'd like to make a set for my 18' SF and would like to know what's the best material to use for backing, foam & vinyl. Any tips or insight would be appreciate it.
Did a search but didn't come up with anything !

I made some years ago using the cellular pvc, (like the pvc trim boards they sell at Lowes). Easy to work with. Solid and flexible.

So I finally got all the material necessary to do my bolsters but would like to incorporate the seacraft logo on them. I have looked into embroidery but was told that the thread will get sun bleached and eventually fade in time especially dark colored thread such as navy blue, the color I would like for the logo . The folks at Sailrite said Sunbrella was supposed to come out with a special thread for the very same purpose some time ago but haven't yet and I don't want to wait.
So I'm looking at having the logo " pad printed " on the Midship vinyl I'm using. Is anyone familiar with this process or had it done ? Also interested to hear other alternatives.
