[Electric Boats] Mount flexible solar panels by the eyelets only?

 

Hi!
I am considering a solution where I will make som kind of foldable solar panels for my electric boat project - in this way I can put the panels out when I need charging, or else keep them stuffed away. 
I am planning to use 150W monocrystalline, flexible panels (i.e 1300x660x3mm).
When the panels are mounted on he deck of the boat I would like them to be mounted by he eyelets only, and not on any stiffening surfaces of any kind. In strong winds, the panels will probabely vibrate and there will be some bending and twisting.
I have no experience with flexible solar panels, but many of you do - what is your opinions/experiences: are flexible panels durable enough to be mounted by the eyelets only?
