Taylor Made Perimeter Lifeline Cushions: Comfort and Safety on the Water

When sailors spend long hours on the water, the lifelines running along the perimeter of the boat become more than just a safety barrier — they become the crew's de facto backrest. Taylor Made recognized this long ago and engineered a dedicated solution: their Perimeter Lifeline Cushions, a product line that has become a go-to choice for sailors on both sailboats and powerboats alike.

A Patented Design Built for the Marine Environment

The patented design of these lifeline cushions puts them a step above the average backrest. They are extremely tough and constructed from sturdy foam covered by abrasion-resistant woven polyester — installation is as simple as threading your lifeline through the center of the cushion. This thread-through approach also means the cushions stay firmly in place, resisting rotation and shifting even in rough conditions.

Taylor Made lifeline cushions are made of closed-cell foam and won't take on water, ensuring long-lasting protection and comfort on your boat. The polyester cover — not bare foam — will not discolor, fade, or rot in the sun, and cleans easily with liquid soap. That combination of closed-cell core and woven outer shell is what sets Taylor Made apart from cheaper, bare-foam alternatives.

Sunbrella Option and Size Variety

Taylor Made offers their Perimeter Lifeline Cushions in multiple configurations to suit different vessels and personal preferences. Available in lengths from 3' to 6', in white and blue, and measuring 1½" wide. For sailors who want a premium aesthetic that coordinates with their sailboat's deck gear, the blue lifeline cushions feature a Sunbrella® cover, which will match your sail covers. Sunbrella fabric is a marine industry standard for UV resistance and colorfastness, making the blue variant an excellent long-term investment.

Sold in sets of two, these sailboat lifeline cushions clean up beautifully with liquid soap and water. The LC150 product line — which includes models like the LC150.30, LC150.45, and LC150.60 — provides a size for virtually every section of lifeline on most production and custom sailboats. These cushions come with a 5-year guarantee , a testament to how confident Taylor Made is in the durability of their marine-grade construction.
