Good day today. After installing the bungee cord hold down on the bow of the kayak yesterday I decided that today would be a good day to hang the kayak.
A couple of months ago I had ordered the NRS Kayak Hanger from Austin Canoe and Kayak. There are a number of interesting ways to store a kayak. Some are more expensive than others. Since I only have one kayak at present the type that are rigid, i.e. bolted to the wall or even free standing didn't offer the flexibility and price structure I was looking for.
I was able to simply drill two holes in the joists under a dry porch and put in two screw eyes. The straps have good hardware (S-hooks) and buckles that made lifting the kayak a few feet was really easy.
Details of the installation are available at the website - Herb's Kayak.
