My full length (76 inches), extra-thick (2 inches) Thermarest pad.

BTW, Mark, camping out of a sea kayak is all about luxurious camping, 
relative to back-packing-style camping;  my "luxury" list is probably about 
fifteen items long, but I am suppressing the lesser fourteen.  Many years I 
slept on a shortie, thinner Thermarest, like some sort of hair-shirted 
monastic nut case.  Actually, I did not sleep on it ... very well anyway.

Sweet dreams.
