Default Pole Barn for Boat Storage...

My boat is getting evicted from where I store it at now. It's nothing special just a big pole barn with only 2 sides and a top.

I tore down my shed last winter and was going to build a new one this summer but have been putting it off for some reason. I think I want to build a simple pole barn just big enough to cover the boat. Nothing fancy just something low key and simple. I don't have a lot of land so I don't want it to stick out. I have a lot of trees on my lot so I'll have to cut some down but the others should help hide it.

Anyone have any pics of a pole barn that is big enough just for there boat so I can get a idea.

The nice thing about pole barns is you can build pretty much any size that fits your space.
The shell is cheap, and I they go up quick

.SO22MAG,
SEND ME YOUR EM ADDRESS TO ME AT [email protected]
I HAVE A SET FOR A 30' X 60; IN .PDF YOU CAN PRINT AT STAPLES,ETC AT FULL SCALE
YOUR ICON SAYS YOU HAVE A 38ZX SO 60' WOULD BE CLOSE AND NARROWING IT WOULD BE EASY.
HEIGHT TO CAN BE MADE TO FIT YOUR NEEDS, TOO
YOU CAN GET PRE-ENGINEERED TRUSSES FROM YOUR LOCAL YARD. AND YOUR GOOD TO GO.
SEND ME YOUR SPECIFIC DIMENSIONS, I CAN ALTER THE PLANS FOR YOUR LOCAL PLANNING BOARD,ETC

I highly recommend http://www.pioneerpolebuildings.com/
i would secondarily recommend http://www.nationalbarn.com/

The link I provided first is my background experience on building my pole barn. I LOVE it.

My advice: BUILD IT HUGE. I know you said your land is small, but you will use every square inch of it; I guarantee it.
Mine is 30x60, and all I had was a dually and a 37' boat. Now, a few years later, I am looking at expanding/doubling in size.

X2 on making it big! I have a 40x60 and I'm planning on expanding as well. It's amazing how much space isn't there, especially if you like to leave enough room to walk around everything.

I 2nd/3rd going huge. I'm on a 1/3 acre lot in "suburbia" and built a 30 x 56. Entire build thread with pics below. Lost of money but the best thing I've ever bought outside of the boat!

You've seen mine... Go as big as possible. You won't regret it. My 70x70 ain't big enough!
