I use a pulley set that is designed for a bike. They have them at Lowes for about $30.00.

Osprey Bay Outdoors, Clearwater, sells one like this. I think they charge less than Cabelas.
Screws into the rafters.

That looks a lot like the one at Lowes. Harbor Frieght has them also.

I kept mine very simple. Lowes sells a set of two ropes, rachet blocks and hooks for under $20 bucks. I use one at each end of the kayak.

I have one of these:

and

It works great and is very well made. It provides a mechanical advantage of 3 to 1, meaning that a 60 pound kayak is going to feel like 20 pounds while lifting. I priced it out to buy the parts at Home Depot and it ended up to be about the same, but you wouldn't have the mechanical lift advatage. So, it seemed like a "no brainer" in my mind.[/url]

You better not be hanging that beautiful kayak on a pulley system!
