Jeff,
I took photos and some measurements last weekend and I finally
got them up on my website (a bit delayed; work kept getting in the way).
Let me know if you have any questions.

Jeff, I'm bringing a double air mattress with me
if I go south this weekend (I live about 1.5 hrs away) and see how the
slight underinflation works out. I'll take photos of the whole thing and
take a few measurements for you.

Thanks Lori. This is helpful. I'd love
to see some more pics, especially of the stringers in place and a
close-up of the cutouts and of the rounded(?) ends of the stringers.
FWIW, I'm thinking of using a
double-size air mattress, which should fit nicely widthwise. Most are 54
inches, and I measure a 55-inch width of the narrower (port) settee.
Lengthwise it may be a bit of a squeeze. Most mattresses are 74 inches,
and I measure 70 inches at the short (fore) side of the new berth. But
I'm thinking it should work if I keep the mattress slightly
under-inflated.
Anyway, thanks again.

Jeff,
they were 2x4s cut down and rounded
along one side to fit into the stringer notches, 5 all together, each
slightly different in length to account for the curved width. I
attached a pic of how the inside looks bedless (I left the photo pretty
big so you can see detail). If you look closely you can see the cutouts
for the stringers with the topping strip. The wide trim strips
lengthwise under each berth were replaced with thicker mahogany but
level with the berth, with a removable finishing trim that fits in with
dowels along the top so there is a lip for the cushions again.
I'm planning to visit my boat this
weekend for a fix and will take a few photos to put on my somewhat
neglected website.

Lori. What size boards did you use for
stringers? How many stringers do you have? Thanks.
