biulding a "lean to?"

I am wanting to build a covered area for my boat. I have a 30x20 shop that I would like to add a "lean to" on the side. It would stick out about 12' and run about 20' of the building. Should I just use 2 treated 4x4's for the open side to hold the roof up or should I hadd more than that? also on the shop side should I attach it to the shop and let half the weight of it hang or should I use 4x4's on all corners?
Thanks

Check with your permit department, as changing the footprint of the building may require a permit. The can also let you know the particulars they will require at inspection time.
