Brian,
In the heat they dont stick together ? Im alittle nutty ( no comments ) when i roll my back drop up I lay a towel or a sheet inbetween. If u can do the hard stuff its truly worth it

Rob, when you roll your back drop, do you have it set up to come completely off or to fully roll to the hard top or radar arch?? If you leave it rolled up to the hard top, do you find its a struggle with the extra thickness of the towel to get the strap to fit?
On mine, I have sections that are able to fully roll up to the arch.
This is why I love my center console. No canvas to worry about. Just one little piece over my electronics, and one over the rear seat. Less then 20 seconds and both are off and on...

Matt,
I take it completely down. Then i have to argue with the wife about where to store it. Its all new glass so I tend to store it in the FWD salon. That doesnt sit well with HER !!! IF i roll it and leave it on the seat, someone ends up sitting on it . ( then the fight begins) IT was once stored ( NOT by ME ) on the dash. It becoame a creased mess that just never looked the same since.
So yea I got issues ....

Thats why its easier to just not use the boat. :)
When I take mine completely down, I either lay it in the aft cabin or the v berth.

Straping them back works on my center panel, because it is rectangle in shape. The left and right panels are an odd shape, so there was no way to fold them back, so on hot days i take them down and lay them flat with clean towels separating them from each other on the forward berth. The makralon does scratch, so you have to be careful with them. I too am pretty nutz with this stuff, but when it is taken care of, it looks great and visibility is better than glass! I got my 3 pieces of makralon for $1,200, which is not cheap, but it was worth it!
