Wings are nice to have but are constantly in the way when you want to go up on the bow. Most people use then when running and tie back once they are fishing. You need to have them rigged on the boat so they are easy to get out of your way once you are fishing. Most have elastic strings and spring clips at the bottom. The clips secure to the floor when under way. When fishing, those clips are secured to the side of the helm station to keep them out of the way.

I'm with Flygaff on the back curtains... Waste of money and on a 20 foot boat since are going to really close you in. And, rolling them up is a pain in the ass and not good for the curtains.

Same thing in my opinion on side curtains, especially on a 20 foot boat where the space to get past the helm and up to the bow is very narrow.

If I were in your shoes I think I'd go with the wings and leave it at that.
