The drop in / removable style is similar to what the fishing cabins use also but their drop ins basically cover the entire floor space of the cabin. No way to stand up just one large pad.
They also told me they don't like their heads near the "HEAD" so it's relocated forward & center like you'd find in a Cig performance vee hull

I requested the shorter lounger in favor of the bow u-shape bench seating on my 2015 NT 340 which is now standard.
If one elects to eliminate the bow seating and retain the longer lounger the berth underneath remains full length and no berth ext or drop in required.

First NT 340 w/ bow seating
Measuring a std lounger to determine how much could be cut out.
Agreed, this was the very first 340 to have the bench seating. When I saw this I asked why can't we just shorten the lounger and 45* the corners

I think the U shaped bow seating really completed the 34, well done on getting Nortech to do that nascat!!
What is the “functional” sleeping length on the 34 w/w/o extension vs 39??

The lumbar support in the lounger seat bottom was another that really upset them. Today I believe it's an option. They've taken it to the next level based on what I saw in Miami.
Good question and one I don't the answer to as I never measured and compared nor have I owned a 39'. What I will tell you is that the helm / cabin module is the same for both boats BUT b/c the 39 is longer where it's located on the deck / hull is a noticeable difference inside. If you look in your cabin forward to where the berth is barely 12" tall that is actually the underside of your deck floor forward of the lounger box. On a 390 it doesn't look like that b/c the lounger is full length since the boat is 5' longer and no need to trim back in order to fit the bow seating. In fact bow seating on a 39 receives longer benches.This gives you the 24" (est) cabin head room towards the bow and you probably can sleep head towards the bow & feet towards the toilet. You'll also notice that a 39 doesn't have the stepped or notched out cabin side walls beside the berth cushion. That's because the cabin is further rearward on the deck / hull and the hull is wider.
