making dinette into bed

We have a 2015 Whitehawk 23MBH and are having trouble converting the
dinette into a bed. We have tried placing the cushions everyway possible & they just don't cover the table completely. Also, when you do lay down on it the cushions start moving and then fall off. We've tried putting a fitted sheet
on it to try and keep the cushions in place, but no luck. Any one know the secret to doing this or have any suggestions?

you could try laying some of the rubber drawer liner on the table, and cut a piece off pool noodle to take up the gap between the cushions

I had the same issue with my Whitehawk 21 FBS and finally started googling it and others had the same issue. I finally got my cushions to fill all of the spaces but just like you, they moved around. I actually wanted to make a "twin" size bed at the window end of it so I cut a board to bridge the gap. The board fits under my seat cushion when not in use. I use some of the cushions and a piece of memory foam as my mattress. Though it's not roomy, I can still use the ends of the bench for sitting and I use a smaller table. So the "twin bed" can stay down and we can still have some space on the ends to use as a table/seating. Hard to explain....

When we make our 20MRB dinette to a bed, the cushions get a fitted sheet over them and that is covered with memory foam with a sheet on it.

When not in use, the memory foam goes on the Murphy bed which is also not in use.
