What are the pads called on the gunwale?

[miss kellie]

I want to add pads to my gunwales to make them more comfortable to lean upon. I have always called them bolster pads. I can't find anything on the net about them. What are they really called?

Misuse, They are called combing pads.

Try coaming bolster pads.
