Homemade 6x10 with canoe rack

[madprinter]

I'm wanting to build a 6x10 with a canoe rack, somewhere around 6' tall inside. Anyone else build or have anything like this? I'm worried about the weight. Thinking of using 2x2 tubing for the frame and 1x2 for wall support and rack, with 1/4" luan walls and possibly sheet metal roof. Any ideas on how to procede or pictures of yours?? What your weight and size?? Thanks, William

I'm worried about the weight.

Weight is relative. What are you going to tow with?
My 5x11 is 1340 lb and I tow it with a 1/2 ton pick-up. 48Rob's 6x12 Cabin Car is 2000lb +, and tows it with a 1928 Model A.

Mike, Thats a great looking build. Its' very inspireing. I like your grafics also.

Dan, I'll be pulling it with a 1996 Ford Explorer Sport, It has a 4.6 L 6 cylinder and automatic trans. I mostly travel to Arkansas to Canoe and Camp. Thanks for all of your input. William
