GL: Boat Mattress

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

Some likes innerspring, some likes foam.
I'm in the foam group.  Master stateroom
mattress on our 1995 Carver was spring
type.  I couldn't sleep on it at all it was
so miserably uncomfortable.  We had a
foam mattress made locally using the
"Swedish" type memory foam.  We were
able to specify the firmness we wanted.
We actually got it a bit too soft, but it
is really comfortable.

Greetings,
I look forward to doing the loop someday and have always wondered how people
sleep comfortably. I know that some yachts have beds similar to what one 
would
find in a home, however many boats have little more than a foam pad. I also
know that the boat magazines offer custom bedding, both innerspring 
mattresses
and latex foam type. What are the recommendations and experiences from the
seasoned cruisers.
