I live in an apartment thus parking/working on your boat is no bueno. The plan for person whom had agreed to let me use their garage for storage/working on fell through.

Any ideas on what I can do to work on my boat? I know of DIY auto-mechanic bay rentals but not sure of anything similar to that for a boat.




Thanks

You need to find some more friends, hopefully ones that have a decent back yard. Boats don't fit into garages very well, unless they are small boats (16ft or less).

Some storage units are "garage like" enough you could work on a boat in 'em.

How long are you tied into your lease? Start looking at houses to rent. Around my area, houses are comparable to apartments from a cost standpoint. The multifamily property market is booming right now because millenials are slow to buy and boomers don't want the extra hassles of owning a home as they grow older. There are a lot of cheap housing rental options right now, even more so after you take into account the cost of boat storage
