This is a great idea for someone with the outdoor space the use this method. I myself do not have this space so I came up with a hoist for indoors to store mine. If you have a chance check it out on my channel and let me know your thought. Thanks!

great idea, is that just a shelf bracket you used to extend from the deck?

Thanks for the idea but if you buy a bicycle lift from Wal-mart, you get all the hardware and it handles up to 50 lbs. I also like your loop strap option but I went a little different so the two loop straps are attached to give less chance of one slipping off. Please let me know what you think, you can see it at Cheap and easy kayak storage.

Perfect! Ive been looking at other setups and this looks like the easiest and most straightforward! Great setup great explanation!

Does this lift both sides of the boat evenly? I'm trying to duplicate your setup, and the side with the pulley attached to the boat lifts much more than the side where the rope is tied. I'm thinking of putting a pulley on that side as well and tying off to the upper bracket.

Good job, if you plan on having the kayak suspended there for several years of disuse, I think you will find that the sun will kill the material kayak structure from the direct sun rays. For the sake of the kayak it would be much better under the cover [up against the exposed joists] of the door walkway. It appears that there is ample room, may mot be as appealing though? regards,

@davidshilts I haven't run into that problem because my back yard is pretty sheltered. If you were having issues though, I'd imagine that you could easily pad the house with a foam block to prevent any banging around.

What about wind beating it against the house?

It looks great for lifting but my question is what it's like for lowering as typically the winches are free to spin in the opposite direction and I would be concerned about it dropping while the handle spins. What's your experience?

This is terrific! It looks much better than anything I've been looking at buying. Would be helpful to know where to buy the materials.

I watched a a six-year old boy raise the kayak easily with the hoist.
