Hey guys, so I'm a college student, and naturally I live in a crappy apartment with no garage. I wanna find an older boat to restore, looking at Lund Mr. Pikes and what not. I don't, however, have any place to put it and work on it throughout the winter. My parents live in Steamboat Springs, a ski town that sees about 400 inches or more of snow per year. Their garage is already filled with my dad's Lund Tyee, dirt bikes, a four wheeler, and my mom's car. Unfortunately I know my mom is not about to give up her garage space. They do however, have plenty of land haha.
I need to come up with some sort of shelter on the cheap for my boat. I'm very skeptical of the temporary plastic and canvas shelters given the amount of snow we get that would build up, and even though I've worked doing frame carpentry work and stuff, I don't wanna deal with building another structure, let alone paying for it. Do you guys know of any temporary structures that would stand up to this snow load? Any other ideas? It would be a plus if it were safe to put a propane heater in it for working in the winter.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
