Finally put a roof over my boat......so my truck can live in the garage.

Still want to put a sun shade/screen over the front of it.

Nice.  That'll make life simpler.

I wired mine, lite it up with 8' floresent with an 110 outlet. I call it pa's pad when ma's mad, gret place to tinker even after dark. looks great

Nice. What does that cost roughly?

1k.......a grand.........a thousand samollians.

 

base price is $595 for a 12'x21' with 5' sidewalls and just the roof covered. you can get the sides done for $150 per side.....I forget what the ends cost.

 

I added 7' sidewalls.......that was extra......and the one unprotected side for $175.....then had to add cross braces.......came out a little over $1000 but very close to that.

 

I have wanted one every since I bought my boat 3 years ago. I have a boat cover but always kept a tarp over it too....to protect the cover. anytime I wanted to tinker with theboat I had to remove tarp....then the cover......and put it all back. Doesn't seem like much but it got very old. Then there was the hail we get in the spring........and the snow that piled up on it.

 

Now I just go out unsnap the cover, lay it back......when I'm done pull it back and snap it. very quick and simple. plus it is protected from the elements. I had one tarp and bought a 2nd one. then used bungee cords to suspend them in the ends.....not completely covering but will keep a lot off stuff out.

 

And one big plus is that I do not have to choose between my truck and my boat when the thunderstorms and hail start this way.

 

Almost forgot......and in less than an hour to build......them fellers were quick.

I love it, Chris!

 

My 2.5 car garage will not fit my boat and have been looking at these for awhile.  Is it anchored or do you have to worry about wind?

My parents have one over their camper. Not sure about Chris's, but yes theirs is anchored into the ground.

Yes it is anchored into the concrete pad on one side...........and 2 or 3 foot rebar anchoring it into the yard side.....I slipped a row of red  bricks under the side in the grass.

 

I got the 7' sides instead of the 5' standard sides........so it will not slide under the eave of the house......my mistake there. But I like that I can stand on the boat while it is under the carport.

We had a pretty strong night of winds last week............I heard the tarps popping....I was nervous about it wanting to leave......but it held just fine.
