Re: 1986 Riviera Table Problem
On my boat there were two posts to support the table. You had to wiggle the table while pulling up and the posts would loosen. Then you could remove both posts (with more wiggling) then set the table down into the edges of the seating, then cover with cushions.

So replaced them with an RV liftable table. Stand alone but possible to jam it under a latch. Stable and possible to take it out on to the cockpit or shore.

True, but the OP wants to drop the table down to use it as a bed...

Which is exactly what I can do by pulling a small handle, a spring helps to carry the weight.
