    Yeah, all that. Plus the fact that I don't sit still much......

    An easier solution to cheap foam holding water is to put some plastic grate tiles under the foam. Cheaper than the expensive dry foam and lets air circulate under the cushions.

    I have two of those reclining pad things, like a chair without arms or legs and locks a different angles. They stay in the forward cabin and get passed out the hatch. Work well when catching the breeze on the front of a convertible.

    I don't know if it was you or someone else that had posted this years back on another forum, but I took advantage of the advise it works wonderfully.
