Where to put my kayak?

My Hobie PA14 garage lift . . . because its one heavy yak, and available storage space is always a premium.

Very nice. Where did you buy your 2" side mount pulleys?
The Harbor Freight electric hoist looks like a good fit for your project.

Great start................however, I can't imagine all of the crap that will get hung up on that rod let alone the rust that it will build after a few trips. Why did you not use galvanized material?

Crap!

I didn't think about the crap. The bolt and nuts are 2"x 1/4" stainless. I'm hoping it works. If something hangs up, it will just fall away and my signal will get funky. Then I will re-attach.
slow process shaping the PVC so I hope it works.

Everybody makes these

I know everybody has made these to death, but I'm pretty happy with them.

Neat design. So you just slid the outer layer of the paracord onto the weed whacker line?
