NOS Kapok Cushion!
Ok, we here at Woody Boater are officially drooling over new old stock Kapok cushions… What ever the disease is that I have, it’s in full bloom. DEAR GOD! it’s a cushion.. OH, no, it’s so much more. It’s like walking into a boat stuff store back in the day and seeing this on the shelf. In its original wrapper. If you own a show boat and its all fancy done. THIS is the perfect accessory.. OK that sounds like its a purse.. It’s the perfect man bag.. no wait.. it’s that perfect touch… no.. that sounds to Martha Stewart.. How bout, it’s great for covering that hole that your grandson made with that pen in his pocket when he sat down on those Tahoe judged seats.. Whatever you call this cushion.. Call it yours on eBay .. Right here.. Just for gods sake don’t waste it on a drowning person… They should have been wearing there life jackets anyway. Its NOS only once!
I had one of those as a kid, but it was the white version. It was great for learning the right of way rules, but I think it had about the same flotation capability as a brick. A slight step up from throwing someone an anchor.
Now that I think about it, that would be perfect for my mother inlaw. I could convince my wife and the authorities I wa trying to save her (better than with the anchor anyway) when we woodyboaters know better.
Will there be classic Woody Boater Kapok Cushions available on the Woody Boater Lifestyle on-line store some day? They would sell like Hot Cakes… The Lawyers would like them too…
Can it also be used to throw at jet-skiers? Not to, at. I’m sorry officer I just thought they should read the Rules Of The Road. Either that or bean them with a copy of Chapman’s.
Ha! Ditto, but they are fun(I still hate them though)
They are the best boat show accessories. Been using them for the last 4 years.
I have a brand new set of yellow with storm warnings on them. Seing we had tornados 50 miles from me, maybe their of more use in the boat.
We can create a kapok Kannon that shoots these at jet skiers.. I love that idea. We were just trying to save them officer.
Oh Man Matt!
Are you the person that bid up the price of those 2 cushions I purchased Monday night? This red one would be a PERFECT match for those two.
Slow down when passing smaller craft! Does that mean I can’t swamp the PWC’s anymore?
No .. If i advertise it here, I leave it be for the masses. I would never want to bid up something that others may want. In fact, thats a cool idea. We can have a bidder connection here so others are not bidding against each other on this.
Hi Matt, No they weren’t advertised here-so nothing like that. I was salivating over 2 REALLY COOL cushions all weekend, prices were good (one was a downright steal) until about 15 minutes before the close of the auction. Then all of us with cushion fetishes (can I say that?) Got into a bidding frenzy. This girl prevailed and you will be seeing them soon on one of our boats! Now I must go shoe shopping……………………………
Jerri – Please send us some photos when you get them, along with your boat… Maybe we can do a Kapok-Palooza week! …if we can find 6 more cushions / days.
I have a small collection of cushions Texx.
Will do, one arrived today and we’re waiting on the really cool 30×15 that we purchased.

OMFG! There is Kapok underwear. Well cotton and kapok…I guess if 90% cotton and 10% nylon counts as kapok…

Hmmmm? That could be interesting. Your kapok clad butt would float while the rest of you is underwater. Or maybe you could be shot out of the kapok cannon?
Then you get a WoodyBoater T-shirt that also says
“I got my a$$ shot out of a kapok cannon!”
If I can get the T-shirt online, count me in. If I have to go to a show to get one…meh.
