[C320-list] **SPAM: Re: Aft Berth Mattress Replacement

[jonvez at comcast.net]

Thanks Darrell, I'd appreciate it. A friend of mine said that the Seven Seas Cruising Club had a recommendation for something you could buy at a big box, but couldn't remember the name either. We thought it may be the floor vapor barrier material they sell. 

I've been tempted to try Dry Bunk but I can't find anyone who has any experience with it--

Regards,

Jon Vez
