Just had my boat winterized. Plan to park in my backyard. I'm in North Ontario, it will be parked untl May/'10. I have a 20x40 tarp I used to use on my old boat...
I don't like shrink wrapping, why wrap it, then rip it off and throw it out in the spring? Seems wasteful, and expensive..
I was debating buying one of those port-a-garage kits for $300 and parkign the boat in that....
Or using some 2x3's and screws and building a similar tarp, and maybe throw some plywood on for a roof.
Or do the simple "build a wooden frame in my boat" and throw the tap on, and pull it tight.
Is there any real advantage to any of these? Lookign for input on this?? Obviously the simplest is to tarp it with the frame inside - just wonder if the garage or homemade shed will offer added protection, or just a waste of my time and money
