Replacement Mattress for Boats

Sleeping quarters on a yacht, sailboat or other vessel have unique requirements. Beds for boats must fit in a tight area with limits on size, shape and thickness. They also must be constructed from marine-grade materials that can handle water and salt exposure without sagging, molding and other permanent damage.



We can help you design and customize a V-berth or boat mattress that will offer years of comfort and deep sleep. The thickness of a boat mattress is often restricted to 4–6" (10–15 cm) and will often serve the dual purposes of sleeping and sitting. Therefore, the best performing and most comfortable option involves the combination of a firm, supportive base layer that is usually 3" (8 cm) topped with a comfort layer of 2–3" of higher quality softer foam. At your request, we will bond the layers together to prevent shifting.



Custom Boat Beds

A FoamOrder.com boat V-berth mattress or standard-size mattress is made to order from a variety of high-grade materials. Select a boat mattress shape above — we have more than 20 options and can do custom mattress configurations too. Another way to freshen up your seaside sleeping is with a V-berth mattress topper. We can add a topper to a new mattress or create one to rejuvenate a current mattress.



All marine mattresses should have a cover to help protect them from the elements and microbes. We offer a wide range of custom fabric V-berth boat mattress covers. These include a 40/60 cotton-poly blend, organic materials and our great-looking and durable Sunbrella® lineup. The FoamOrder.com customer service team is happy to assist with your mattress needs — call Monday–Friday, use online chat or send a message with our Contact Form.



Many boat cushions do not require a pattern if they match one of the shapes above. However, if you want us to design a V-berth mattress to fit your boat, you will need to prepare a pattern for us to work from. Take a minute and review how your existing cushions look. This is your chance to correct any gaps and make improvements. Using pattern paper or fabric, simply cut the pattern to the exact size desired. A pattern drawn with precision will result in a more exact-fitting cushion. Please indicate the top of the pattern by writing “This side up.” Indicate which side(s) should be used for zipper placement and stripe direction. Large V-berths and cushions should have a zipper on three sides to make it easier to insert the foam cushion. We recommend placing the zipper on the side facing the boat hull — not under the cushion. This placement hides the zipper from view and prevents it from buckling.



To place an order, all you need are the largest dimensions (thickness, length and width) of your old boat mattress or custom shape. Enter the dimensions after selecting the Pattern Shapes custom option.
