Otto.. I have 12 wide by 13 high door in my shop. If it won't go out the door it won't go down the road. I haven't had a boat that didn't fit in there. Just did a 30' Grady last week and it went out the door with an inch to spare. I put radiant heat in the floor when I built the shop, works great about $5.00 a day to heat a 40x40x14 shop..

Don ( or anyone )
Is 13' the absolute maximum height for anything rolling down the road .... ( I realize on secondary roads that might not be the case) I know this top is OK but real close I would rather this not see the underside of a bridge "up close and personal" as I think an underpass might have the slight advantage [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] of course I wouldn’t want to scratch any bridges either [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] ![]() I get sick just thinking of moving along ...... and ..... CRUNCH ... Good info to have stashed away |

Scott,
Do not go anywhere before measuring the total height of your rig. 13'6" is the maximum "legal" height and most bridges, unless otherwise marked are on that program. I would do everything possible to keep the overall height AS LOW AS POSIBLE. Write the overall height on a post-it-note and put it on your truck console. The doors we have at our warehouse are 12' x 14' so we can drive ab 18 wheeler inside and unload out of the weather. You gotta love that. Don is right, 13' doors will handle pretty much anything boat wise. Unfortunately, I only have room for 12' in this structure, so it will have to do.

Don,
My boiler guy threw me $9 to $12 per foot for radiant heat in the slab. I'm not sure if that included the insulation and grid. Ouch. You're right. Some of that work will have be sweat equity.

Otto.. Yeah $9 to $12 a square is the same price here.. The guy that did the heat is a buddy of mine and did it for the cost of the materials. It was $2,200.00 for the boiler and hardware to hook it up. I got most of the tube from another guy for free and I had to buy some too ($203.00 a roll 600ft 1/2"). But you can do the floor work your self and if you know a little bit about boilers and hot water heat you can do the rest your self, it's pretty simple..
