My tent hangs from a 2 x 2 rectangular frame that is fixed permanently in place about a foot below the ceiling. When I am not using it I cut down one corner and roll the walls up onto the roof of the frame. Then I just drop the walls and tape the cut corner when I need it again.
The door of the tent is just an overlap of about four foot at the front end. When the heat gets up the whole thing bulges outward and seals up nicely.
The bubble wrap of the one in the photo is starting to look a little ragged at this stage. It has served for three boats. I could probably get another three out of it. I am thinking though, of getting some heavier material - rip-stop greenhouse plastic maybe - and attaching Velcro down the corners to make the whole thing a little more elegant.
Even here, where it doesn't get that cold, I couldn't manage without it in winter.
