Last year, I raised the engine hatch all the way and put 3 poles down the center. I had 7 ft. headroom to work on the cockpit and dash board and the engine room was wide open to work in, I called it Ft. Apache.
Garages are nice, wish I had one! Poly tarps look like hell and flop around in the wind all winter and chafe the side of the boat.

We get the bbq fired up,have some laughs, 12hrs. and a few beverages later, 3 or 4 Formulas, 33 foot ta 38' are wrapped up tight for a long north east winters nap. My boat mechanic buddy gets all the stuff. It takes a whole saturday, but for under $150. for a shrink wrapped boat its worth it.

Ive kept mine both inside, climate controlled, and outside. Currently it is outside under a full cover. I've used canvas with it also. But the canvas will not breath like the full cover. I really need a shed or fixed roof. I keep the snow off of it cause I dont like the melting snow to saturate the cover and let moisture through.
