I have two, cut from blue vinyl from Jo-ann Fabrics. One is 36" x 48" and the other is 60" x 108". I like the big one, because even though the action often only takes place in a portion of it, it really gives a feeling of the expanse of the sea. Of course, it's a little unwieldy and to use it, we have to slide two picnic tables together at our local yacht club.
Here's a link to some pictures of the big one in action:

I also have two mats. One is the size of two Ares mats to fit my games table and the other is 60x96 inches for use at shows. When combined with Chris's we had space enough to do Trafalgar at Doncaster two years ago.

The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
