You also want the fabric to lay onto the boat on a bias, corner to opposite corner diagonally. This will help it to drape around the hull shape with the minimum of wrinkles. I suggest holding the glass to the hull with spring clamps once positioned, it will want to slide off to one side pretty easily.
