ort. Carport, I mean boat shed.

Soon the truck and new minivan will have their spots back in the garage.

18 x 26 with 8' sidewalls taxed and installed for $2900
Would have liked to go 24 x32, but too much $$$ and too many trees to remove.
Too much $$ for the ends and doors, will build my own.

First item inside: a 40" high 7' long outboard rack.

Nice start there. It will change over time and look totally different if you are like most folks. :thumb:

There already was a small gravel pad there, so I got 30 yards ( $250 ) more gravel and spread it with the atv snow plow.

Cable TV, yeah right. I don't even have tv in the house.

The garage is my man cave, 28x36, 2x6 insulated, gas heat, 40 four foot fluorescent tubes.

As far as shed improvements go, I have 24' of 2' wide shelving, 6 feet tall, to go along one wall.
And 6 sheets of treated 4x8 for a floor on one half.
A few lights.
Doors for now will be heavy plastic tarp hung on an 1/8" cable, $40, done.

Would like to put in a roll up door, but didn't like the price or quality, and need something wide enough to get the atv through while the boat is sitting in the way.

I MADE IT THIS SMALL SO I would no longer be tempted to buy a 24' Starcraft Chieftain hard top Express.




Still tempted.

Put some sheet foam down below the plywood, it would be much warmer in the winter.
