Greg Luckett Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 I need to come up with a designe for a temporary shed to build the Princess Sharpie 26 in. It will take me several years to build the boat, therefore the shed must handle snow loads. I am thinking of a steep slope on the top to shed snow easier, sort of like arches or an A frame. Any suggestions or places to look? Quote
Roger Peterson Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Hi Greg, Google Stimpson Marine... They sell plans for a really cool "Bow Roof Shed" that can handle the snow loads in Maine. I bought the plans to build one in my back yard. The plans are adjustable for up to 24' wide by as long as you care to make it. If you line the inside as well as the outside with plastic, it becomes an insulated enclosure that is easy to keep warm in the winter. Roger Quote

I looked at them, but wonder how tall in relation to width they get. I have height restrictions due to power lines but need it wide enough too. Thanks. Quote
Roger Peterson Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Hi Greg, The height is about the same as the overall width. IE: Max size would be about 20'wide x 20' tall x total length available if you used 20' material. Quote
