Portable shelter/canopy for a boat

[Andy Taylor]

Does anyone use a portable shelter/canopy for your boat? If so, is there one you would recommend? I'm thinking about 10' X 20'.

One company I was looking at is Ecanopy.com

Thanks

Are you looking for something permanent or truly portable/temporary? Lots of people use those tin/metal portable sheds around here as they are called but you can make them more permanent with anchors, walls and doors, etc if you want.

I asked this question a few weeks back. The consensus was that the $200 variety basically lasts a season. If you want something lasting, either the metal covered shelter or a stronger vinyl one. Surely the vinyl one no matter how good won't handle the snow load in Wisconsin. I wanted to have a covered place to work on a boat and still haven't decided what to do.

Permanent, but like bobberboy said, it would need to support snow. I'm only checking into this to see if I want to buy a poly square stern canoe. They have to be kept out of the sun, tarp cannot touch the boat, etc.
