Not sure how big you're wanting to go, but dad got a car port installed for a good price and then bought extra metal a couple years later to close the sides in. Works out great for keeping the boat out of the elements.

Just throwing that out there too

Go steel!

God intended wood to grow out of the earth, why are you trying to put it back in?

If you're going to access it in the winter don't slope the roof over the doors! My 02 from father in laws building! Avy in waiting, or very large berm to negotiate.
Go BIG, finish later!
