Sheets and how to make them fit
Those with similar layouts, what have you done? Meaning, have you purchased sheet sets (what size?) and done what to make them tuck in/fit? The wife thinks the aft berth is close to Queen size, I'm leaning closer to "full" size. As for the fwd berth, I'm guessing at least a queen, if not King, to wrap that odd shaped mattress?
We're thing of using suspender clips with elastic webbing, and fashioning 45 degree corner "snuggies" underneath the mattress.
Your thoughts and idea's much appreciated.

Also RV KING & king ( and of course Cal King).
Different depth of sheets are available on line. Odd shapes may require a sewing machine, done that.
The best way to improve your memory is to do unforgettable things.

Re: Sheets and how to make them fit
When we bought the boat we chucked both the mattresses for hygienic and not to mention comfort reasons. We simply went to Ikea where we could try different foam mattresses and we chose the model we were comfortable on. Removed the zip-on protector, laid the old mattress on the new and traced the outline with a marker, used an electric carving knife and cut the new to shape. The zip-on protector was now modified to suit the new shape and put back on. While I was there I taped together some kraft paper to get it big enough and traced the pattern of both mattresses onto it which I have at home. This serves as a pattern for sheet modification.
