My boat has neither. I have twin bunks on the fwd stateroom and tight double bed in the midship stateroom that requires a climb-over maneuver to enter/exit. I have been told that our next boat (if there ever is one) will have an island bed. Aye, aye, Admiral!!
Al, that V berth was in my trawler. The island queen is in the bow of the Sabre. It's up two steps. Lot's of pressure being up on that bed.
