We tried sleeping bags and I didn't like them because they are too
hot. We are typically only in warmer weather.
We have a mattress pad over the mattress and then a fitted sheet.
These came with the boat. Bob has a top sheet and then a quilt. I
like to stick my feet out, so I just sleep under a quilt. It's a
small single bed quilt that I got from the Lands End overstock
catalog. I can't be bothered to have the top sheet tucked in when I
just untuck it. I also have heavier duty quilts but we rarely need
them.
If I need to be warmer, I dress more warmly. I wear heavy duty
thermal underwear to bed on top of my ordinary night clothes.
