Comfortable seating in cockpit

I would love to see what kind of seats/cushions/contraptions people use in their cockpit to make it more comfortable to sit. Both underway and while at dock are of interest. I was recently on a sailboat that had these big cushiony recliner type things that were pretty sweet. Pictures would be appreciated...

Cheers!

I don't have anything in the cockpit to sit on since I threw away my cockpit cushions. But I have thought some small captains chairs facing inward on either side would be really comfortable for longer sails. The cockpit of my 26 doesn't have what I would call extra space though, so it has never happened.

We use these west marine cushions under sail and dockside...they are very comfy when sitting on the low side heeled over. They seem to go on sale several times each season.

We had cushions custom made for the entire cockpit. They're really comfortable and did not cost more than $300. I like the Sporta Seats and will probably get a couple soon.
