I have a Quest, which is 60lbs - the lightest by far of all Hobie fishing kayaks. I can see it potentially failing if it were a PA, but if I had a PA I would simply get stronger straps.

I prefer to store my kayaks upside down. The gunwales are much stronger than the hull bottom.

Couple of set of sawhorse joints and some 2x4s. They stack out of the way pretty easily and don't take up too much room.
