[C320-list] Aft Berth Mattress Replacement

[Kirk McCullough]

I can echo Tony's remarks. We did exactly the same thing with the Costco 
purchase. The mattress is great. Only problem is when we are lying at anchor 
in a favorite bay, we have trouble getting out of bed in the morning. My 
wife who is normally up early, no matter what, now stays curled up in bed, 
until its almost time for me to be cracking my first beer. ... That's how 
great the improvement is over the 1994 original mattress. We love it.
