I used to live in Cape Coral, and there is a vast difference in pricing from the west coast to the east coast. I have checked pricing all over this area and $15.00 per linear foot is very reasonable in Palm Beach County where I live. But that is why I am checking with everyone on here and getting a feel for the market. Thanks everyone!!
New building can handle 45 ft and up to 14'9 beam

Thanks for the information. $18.50 a foot for an annual rate, for a 38 footer $703.00 plus tax a month. If you go monthly your at $22.00 which comes out to $836.00 plus tax . Pretty Steep pricing! I guess I would have to be below $15.00 a foot to make it worthwhile to store a boat on land. Maybe $13.00 a foot would make it worth while to potential customers...

Thunderboat Marina is in Broward County. Pricing in Palm Beach is not the same. Palm Beach is 40 to 50 miles north of that area. Look on a map where this marina is located, it is way inland, it would take you forever and ever to get out to the ocean. I could trailer a customer's boat from the warehouse on to a ramp by peanut island and be on the ocean in 10 minutes.

I come to palm beach twice a year.
Would love to have my boat down there someday.
But storage is only one part of the $ equation. R/T transport is prohibitive for me now.

Hemi, if you get more specific on this I know of a building that would fit nicely. I showed it to a large manufacturer before we headed south a bit. Even has a huge truck/boat wash area and multiple LARGE doors.
