If those cheap Costco sheds are made out of tin I'd think twice about using it to house a kayak. Isn't Louisiana hurricane country? Those sheds are so light any kind of breeze is likely to send it straight to Kansas. "Auntie AM, Auntie Am another shed from Louisiana just landed on Toto and this ones full of funny looking boats!" Build something nice out of wood. You can buy a framing kit for 2X4's that eliminate complicated cuts. Build it on skids or on a nice cement pad, add paint, and some door hardware and you've got something that will add to your property value. Disregard the above suggestion if there's anyone in your family named Buba.

I don't know where Gordin is from, but in my part of the US, you mess around with cement pads, 2 x 4s and such, you're talking building permits, and zoning permits, just to start with. Officialdom ain't simple anytime, anywhere and it is definitely not cheap.

Disregard the above suggestion if there's anyone in your family named Buba. How about bubbe? Or bubby? Bobby? (Nah, that's pretty far afield...
