I have searched the web up and down and have not come across any mention about covering a flexible solar panel with say a sunbrella cover when the boat is alongside and plugged in. Conversely there is a lot of material regarding the adverse effect that UV has on flexible solar panels after just a few years.
So for those of you who have flexible solar panels mounted on your boat (or RV), do you put a cover over them when the panels are not being employed? Is there any good reason not to?
