I had finally had enough of the 1980 era fabric on 1973 era foam v-berth cushions and decided to make something better. I ordered a 6 inch thick king sized memory foam mattress and an electric carving knife from Amazon, drew an outline of the cushions, and started cutting. So far so good ☺ I crammed and stuffed it into the car, drove down to the dock, and now had to carry this huge thing in wind gusting to 30 onto the boat and get it aboard without getting launched off the dock. Well that was hard enough, but the next step was not totally thought through. The companionway and the passage past the head to the v-berth are not really up to king sized mattress moving. After what felt like a huge fight with an angry giant octopus, I finally got it up there. It is very comfortable too, but what a freaking pain!
