This video is utilizing the "Surface Mount NuSnap" to secure the cushion.
NuSnaps are designed to snap and unsnap to your cushion. When its time for new cushions or your going to reupholster, simply unsnap and re-snap to your new cushions. These snaps are meant to last the lifetime of your boat so your only buying them once!
All cushions require ample amount of snaps to secure them to the deck. With all cushions being different, a rule of thumb guide is a 12"x18" seat cushion would require (4) one snap in each corner like the four configuration on dice. A 24"x48" seat cushion would require (6) one snap in each corner, one center front and one center back, like the six configuration on dice. All boats have different high wind areas at speed so after installation on the initial run, it is recommended that you monitor the cushions at speed to see if there is any uplift or cupping at each cushion. For example, cushions that face high wind situations such as aft bench seating may require extra placement of snaps on the windward side to ensure wind does not get under the cushion and cause up draft cupping. We recommend snaps not be more than 12-16 inches apart for the Surface Mount Snaps and 16-18 inches for the Flush Mount Snaps on high windward sides of the cushion.

Surface Mount NuSnap
This video shows the surface mount system.
Tip: Most boats with existing snaps you just need to uninstall the old snap hardware and using the same holes replace with your NuSnaps hardware. Done! (This is assuming your original snaps were installed in the correct locations, we recommend surface mount snaps not be more than 12-16 inches apart on high windward sides of the cushion)
If this is a new install or not using the existing holes from the original snaps:
Attention: If your cushion has both horizontal and vertical mounting snaps, pay close attention to the sequence below on marking and drilling the different surface holes. Failure to do so will cause vertical holes to be misaligned.
Step#1: Install all your NuSnap Magsnaps to your cushion.
Step#2: place the cushion with the NuSnaps installed exactly where you intend to place it on the boat, with a wax pencil, trace the outer edge of only the "Horizontal Surface" cushion snaps on to the boat. (Do not trace vertical surface snaps at this time if you have them).
Step#3: With a stainless steel 82 degree #8 x 3/4" long flathead screw, only attach the "Horizontal" Surface Mount Anchor at the center mark. Screw must sit flush with anchor. Place cushion down to inshore fit.
Setp#4: With the cushion down and the horizontal NuSnap Magsnaps & Surface Mounts connected. With a wax pencil, trace the outer edge of the "Vertical Surface" cushion snaps on to the boat.
Step#5: With a stainless steel 82 degree #8 x 3/4" long flathead screw, attach the Vertical Surface Mount Anchor at the center mark. Screw must sit flush with anchor. Place cushion down to inshore fit. Done!

Recessed Flush Mount NuSnap
This Video shows the NuSnap flush mount system. This low-profile design sits flush with the surface in a 1-1/8th inch diameter, 5/16th inch depth counterbore. We recommend flush mount snaps not be more than 16-18 inches apart on high windward sides of the cushion.
Attention: If your cushion has both horizontal and vertical mounting snaps, pay close attention to the sequence below on marking and drilling the different surface holes. Failure to do so will cause vertical holes to be misaligned.
Step#1: Install all your NuSnap Magsnaps to your cushion.
Step#2: place the cushion with the NuSnaps installed exactly where you intend to place it on the boat, with a wax pencil, trace the outer edge of only the "Horizontal Surface" cushion snaps on to the boat. (Do not trace vertical surface snaps at this time if you have them).
Step#3: Drill the hole with a 1-1/8" Spade or forstner bit for the "Horizontal Surface" snaps only.
Note: (4th,5th & 6th steps are only if you have the vertical hang tab type cushion, If not skip to Step#7)
Setp#4: Temporarily Connect the Flush Mount Anchor to the cushion snaps. Place the cushion down with the horizontal NuSnap Magsnaps & Flush Mount sitting dry-fit in these newly drilled holes.
Step#5: with a wax pencil, trace the outer edge of the "Vertical Surface" cushion snaps on to the boat.
Step#6: Drill the holes with a 1-1/8" Spade or forstner bit for the "Vertical Surface" snaps.
Step#7: Put the cushion aside & apply 3M 5200 to the sidewalls of the flush mount anchors & insert into the boat side holes, wipe clean any excess, allow 48hrs to cure before attaching the cushion.
Tools Needed: Drill, 1-1/8" spade/forstner bit, 3M-5200, Wax Pencil.

Does it rust? No way, man!!

Installation Tips:
Tip #1. For "hang tag style cushions" If the fabric is thick, cut away access material and make the hole a little bigger than needed to get the snap stem through the fabric. On a flat surface, lay a piece of wood down and place the cushion with the mag-snap through the fabric button side up on top of the wood. With a rubber mallet give a soft whack to seat the button cap to the Mag-snap sandwiching the fabric in between. Video of this installation coming soon!
Tip#2. Do not install the NuSnap Magsnaps close to any sewing seams. This may seat the NuSnap crooked and cause issues. Button Cap must sit flush with the Mag-Snap.
Tip#3. Use latex gloves, long sleeves and have a shop vac handy while drilling the Flush Mount holes. Fiberglass does not feel good on skin!!
If you have any questions on installation, always feel free to give us a call. Anchors Away!
