Does that trailer sit higher than norm, or are you going to have height clearance problems with the RV Shelter?
Mine is 13ft @ the wall's and 14ft in the middle...... Only 12ft wide, due to property line set backs. Would have liked 18ft wide.
It's 40ft long.
Wart,
Its a paradigm perspective from the angle of the image. I had the barn built 20X40 with 14' 6" low overhead clearance specifically for my last offshore boat and the next one after that. Actually, when I was designing the barn, I knew this was not our forever home. So, the next buyer may want the barn for something different than a boat, like an RV (as you mentioned). So, I built the low overhead clearence tall enough to accommodate an RV w/ an A/C unit or two…. as to value add to the property rather than value diminish.
While under way from NY as she sits on that trailer, she is 12 feet, 4 inches tall. The Parker was brought home last night from NY on a custom 42 foot steel trailer with (3) 7,000 pound axles. Sunday, the same shipper is going to tow it to the marina where my Yamaha tech is located. He will completely service both f225 motors including: Oil filter, oil change, fuel filters, thermostats, zincs, water pumps, impellas, spark plugs, timing belts, check valve clearance, exhaust corrosion scoping.
Once the service is done, they'll place her in the water, then on Tuesday this week, Ill run her on the st. johns river to a boat lift under a boathouse for the next 3-4 weeks where I'll be doing some updating. Once all the electronics are installed, thru hulls replaced and a various other small projects, I'll motor her to the Florida Yacht Club where she'll be wet slipped long term.
So, long answer to a short question…
The barn houses other toys: a pair of 13 foot whaler's, lawn equipment, Polaris Ranger, various other toys, boats and projects… It's my man space
