After taking a couple of beginning sea kayaking trainings and trips with the club a couple of years ago, I've been dreaming of owning the equipment to go on some extended journeys with the club some day and with my new job I would like to start considering buying a boat.

I have been warned that the advanced trips require lots of experience, well, OK. I'll have work to on getting some more experience.

I still want to buy a boat now that will serve me well on those extended trips some day.

Unfortunately, I'm out of storage space for a boat. What can I do? Do I need to build a special shed? Are there other options?

Thanks

In my opinion, you can store a kayak outdoors, upside down, with hatch covers removed, out of the sun, although I never have done this since I've always had the option of a garage. I'd just be careful they didn't accumulate water that could freeze and thaw, and that the sun didn't bleach them out.

This is a real dilemma. I have a house, and a garage, and sea kayaks are just too long for the average space and even if they fit they become the only thing that can be in the space.
