What I've found good for use in my garage which has an 8' ceiling are the 20' long 1" nylon straps with cam buckles NRS (www.nrsweb.com) sells. I have a couple of heavy 3/8" screw hook eyes screwed into the joists and the webbing is run through the eye. The cam lock provides the leverage for lifting. The straps are placed about in the area of the bulkheads on my boats and cost about $7 each. Works well for me. If your joists are higher than 8', another scheme may be necessary.
