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.

Yet another reason for a 42' piece of Reg Fountains handywork Chief, .
10' surf is a cause for celebration, at about 50mph...
Best of luck.

I decided to re-post instead of edit since it took so long.
kwschumm - The 20 x 24 building w/ man door, 10' sidewalls & 10' x 9.5' door came in around $480 / sf last year.
In hind sight, a totally metal building may have been cheaper, I don't know. But this fit my comfort level better at the time.

JParker, I assume you didn't really pay $480/sf and meant $48/sf. Believe me, I'm not criticizing your choice of a pole barn over a metal building. I'd give my eye teeth for either right now! I was just curious about your reasoning.
Thanks for the info.

I'm not sure exactly what the CRS I keep reading about stands for, but it must be catching.
20 x 24 = 480 sf
That's where the 480 came from. The price was $6270 or $13.06 / sf.

Ah, $13/sf is a lot more like it!
CRS = Can't Remember Sh-t!
