That actually looks like a warm/cozy garage! It's deep too!

Oh well, the new one will be even better, I bet.

The only reason I got rid of most of my neat cars was the fact that I couldn't store them when I was done with them... I would be great to just park them when I was tired with them and buy something else...
I'd get back to them years later and enjoy them all over again.... :rocker:

So once you get the new one built what are you going to do to the under ground add a Gameroom? Looks great by the way.

Most of my existing garage will be turned into living space, most likely a rec room of some type. There is already a full bathroom down there. (Behind the wood wall). I will still park at least one car there, most likely my wife's Jeep.

I was thinking of using dollies for my pontoon boat without a trailer. Id have a neighbor with a trailer bring my boat to my garage and then I'd put the boat on dollies and swing sideways into the garage.

How easy is yours to wheel around? also, how do you get it on and off the trailer? or is your boat on the trailer with the dollies under the trailer?

Actually the garage is not coming along very well at all. I actually got the concrete done this past spring. Then a hernia operation and a ruptured appendix slowed me down a lot. Then the prices of the lumber has gone through the roof, so I have put things on hold till spring, I hope prices have settled down a little by then.

As far as the dollies go, I can easily push my boat around by myself and it is still on the trailer.
