Storage can be awesome as well if you desire to have more toys without locking into purchasing a much larger property. Storage space is flexible space so if the boat is no longer interesting, can sell the boat, cancel storage and not have any ongoing expenses.
We have 2 year round spaces 12x30 and an additional seasonal indoor spot for a 39’ RV. All in it costs about $2500 a year. Not ‘cheap’ but worth it for this situation.

The seasonal spot is a large pole shed and the guy gets 110-120 units in there at an average of $400 each. good cash flow if you have the space.
