I will be getting a PA 12 in a few months and am trying to figure how I want to store it. I have a garage with a 10' ceiling so I can hang it but Im not sure I like the idea of it hanging over my truck. My other idea is to build a small shed with a roof and locking door that is level with my tailgate. I could just back up and slide it off. What do you guys think? |

Sure makes it nice to just drop it on the truck. As long as your roof structure can handle it. But hey... a boat cave? |

Shed. Better yet, Shed plus trailer. I would not want my boat dripping (especially saltwater) on my vehicle after a sail. |

If I do the shed will it get too hot inside in summer? |

I keep my boat in a detached (no AC) garage in the Texas heat on a trailer with PVC bunks without issue. |
