Hi Fed,

Looking good,Im at the Quote part with my boat shelter project at the moment.Had some plans drawn up,council wants $300. just to look at them :o

Hey Fed, why the gable roof on the carport. the gable ends restrict your opening height.

OK I SEE, the view is from the back end.

You've got it good Fish, Council fees for me were $620. :(

Sumo, I've been agonising over the height / clearance problem, the front will have a beam too but it will be about 6" higher to squeeze my boat under it. I'm getting some lattice infills fitted on the ends to match it up with the rest of the house.

Progress Report


I want it to match the existing awning below.

That,s another reason I left NSW...

looks better now ED, and the awning answer's the gable style. hope you've got enough room at the front to get it through the yard

Is that you having a luch break again.
mate most of the things peaple put through counsill I wouldn't bother . they wanted money for a back garden shed I thought F##K U I put it up without there knowing and its been there 8 years same with friends I know they have done sructual things .

If you try and sell your house or if sombody reads this :o

I bought my place and it had a big 3 by 3 mt luandry/ shed at rear was'nt on plans and trying to not get caught out when I bought I told counsil and they could'nt care less.

What's this Carport Wolly Bully ?
It's a Bloody Boatport Hey Fed of you like I can ask my old man to supply you with grapevines

That will conceal it

The Boatport should be finished today I may have to commandeer part of the Council's land nextdoor to make the entry wider.

Hey Fed !

But I'm too knackered to worry about it today.
Looks like we have to delete previous attachments so I wiped out 1 from an older thread.

Geez Ed the trailer must be high at the front? or did you put it on a stand for the pic

I've got the jockey wheel wound up and the boat sits high on the trailer Sumo, the trailer is ready for the scrapyard so I'm not too worried about fooling with it.

Hey Fed there's a trailer Manufacturer up at Charmhaven apparently the best value trailers so i've been told.

Thinking about getting one from Sales Trailers (Sydney), I've bought one in the past from there and it was a good trailer.
