When we went to see the new Beneteau 46 that we had just bought, the covers on both the v-berth and aft-berth had been removed by the seller. He told us that they were like the picture on the wall (that was there from when the boat was taken to a boat show and we certainly did not expect to keep). If it is true that Beneteaus are not sold with mattress covers, what do new owners do? We are looking into having custom covers made and they seem very expensive. Thanks.
