The first time I ever slept aboard a boat it was a charter, and we
were in the V-berth. I looked at it and instantly decided to sleep
with my head at the pointy end, and moved the pillows to that end.

Probably depends on the boat. Many of them are narrow enough that two
people's shoulders wouldn't physically fit, let alone be comfortable.
