Speaking of which, we had a tufted topper and fitted sheets on Corsair,
our Redwing 35 (C&C 35-1) that is still in the basement. It is
available to anyone on the list (with a C&C 35-1) for the price of
shipping (and maybe a small donation to Stu). Please let me know. I
might be a little slow on response. We are going up to the boat today
for another coat of Epiphanes on the teak and try to get the rudder
sensor installation completed for the autopilot.

I have a tufted topper. I like it, but I do not like the fitted sheets
they made for me. It may have partly been user error doing the traces,
they are tight and prone to pop loose.
What I have now:
I bought a king size memory foam mattress. I put the V-berth cushions
on top of it, traced them with a marker, and then cut the mattress to
shape with an electric carving knife. Do NOT try and do this without
an electric knife, you will butcher it if you do it by hand. The
mattress came with a cover I managed to get off and reuse.
I use the tufted topper on top of that and use king sized sheets. IMHO
they work a lot better than fitted v-shaped sheets. I know it is hard
to believe our tiny v-berths use king sheets, but they do. This is
about 20x more comfortable than the original cushions and there is no
seam in the middle. The only drawback so far was getting the mattress
through the hatch and into the forward cabin was like fighting a giant
octopus!
* think twice about sleeping directly on memory foam. When it is 98
degrees F and 99.999% humidity, do you really want foam that forms
around you?

I had a pillow top pad made for my V-berth by Tufted Topper

job. They also make fitted sheets.
