You might be better off throwing your money at a good coverit boat shed and doing it yourself over the winter. Years ago I stripped my old tracker V17 and rebuilt it over a winter. Cabelas sells good marine carpet and adhesive and you can get marine plywood or exterior and seal it with resin. As long as you put some thought into it first and order the right materials, the work isn't brain surgery. I used a propane bullet heater with a built in T-stat to maintain temps and even resined during the winter. If you use a coverit and heat, you must line the inside with plastic or everything in the shed will be moist come morning. I used strapping on the aluminum frame and stapled plastic to the inside and my condensation problems went away.
