Well, i am going to the extreme. After buying the boat of my dreams, my wife is allowing me to build a garage to store it in. We had talked about a big garage for all my equipment. I have 15 acres so there are tractors, mowers attachments, brush cutters, etc.
We had the foundation dug this weekend 32 x 34. 14 foot high door for the boat and a 10 foot for the tractor, etc. Figure it's an investment adding to property value and, what the hell, that's why I am still working at 63 1/2. So I can afford stuff like this.
The down side is I will miss the pour today and some of the site prep as I flew yesterday (Sunday) for a week on the road in FL.

No boat, back in the suds.

Piemma,

That is the way to go no question... I have a friend who has a steel building on a slab. They block up his boat inside close the door and it's done. His has heat, lights and is 20+' wide so it has workbenches tools boat crap etc all inside. It is sweet. Best of luck with it!!
