I would roll the canvas so you dont end up with creases in the glass,should be okay in the boat.

lay a towel between each section of eisenglass and roll them up..the use some velcro strips to hold them in place and store in the midberth....no lights down there....

yeah...makes them really stiff...don't try and open a rolled up eisenglass..it will snap or split.....not fun....but the good news is you can get new eisenglass sewed in place for about 20 bucks a panel...

Basically, eisenglass is just a generic term for all clear vinyl being used for enclosures. True eisenglass, which was made from mica hasn't been produced for more than 40 years. Strataglass is regular double polished clear vinyl with a coating.
