If you concerned about a possible roof collapse; you can add some center support poles and that should be more than enough to prevent a snow load collapse. If you are not to keen on these types of shelters; you can try the fence pipe rail and tarp type. Worst case with these is that the tarp tears away and equipment gets snow all over it. I recommend the 1 5/8" fence pipe rail shelters. They are the strongest and if you get the steepest pitch roof for these shelters, most if not all the snow should slide off. I have a 20' x 30' shelter but used the 1 3/8" pipe tubing and wish I had gone with the heavier tubing. Take a look at pictures # 18 & 19. # 18 is the El Cheapo shelter ($120) but the other is very sturdy.

bnrhuffman, definitely not my boat. I don't think there could have been one uncracked piece of fiberglass left in that hull. The guy got way to close to shore and got caught in the surf; had to take a beating to get to calmer water. I have gone over some 10 footers from the larger tow boats but nothing like that. If you take the wave at the correct angle and reasonable speed, the will tend to cut through the wave much better. When you get that far into the surf, the waves are too big to take at an angle and you are forced to take them head on. I baby my Sea Ray.

You may want to take another look at the heavier duty 1- 5/8" pipe tarp shelters. They are very strong and if you use a good tarp with bungees tensioned properly; the tarps and bungees last for several years too. A permanent fully enclosed building or barn is definitely much nicer though.
