i like futons too but they need to be kept dry and regularly aired. on a boat i think you would have a mould farm in no time.

Not many people like futons! I love em too and yes good point re mould

I have a fitted inner spring in the V berth & a double in the Aft berth - they came with the boat. So nice when you drop anchor dog tired....
I reckon it's worth paying whatever it takes to ensure you get a comfortable rest.

Guys, what's wrong with a hammock?

I'm guessing you've not slept in one then?

Sleep in a hammock in the cockpit in high summer. Love it!
What is wrong with it LC?

I have this system on my boat and it has made a 30tr old foam matress feel like an inner-spring job!
There is a shop in Melb that sells all their products so I am guessing that there will be an agent in NSW.
I also love their composting toilet, but it is a bit too dear for my budget at the moment, if I was a permanent live-aboard it would definately be on the shopping list.

Hammocks are choice. We also throw a single spring mattress on the floor underneath the hammock. Sleeping two in the one spot

We have a foam mattress in the v birth but you tend to sink to fat into it.
