Re: [Paddlewise] Yaks as Decoration

I'm running into similar kayak storage problems. I want to mount my kayak on
the wall or from the ceiling of my studio apartment so that it's not sitting
in the middle of the floor in front of my fireplace. I have a high ceiling
but old plastered walls so I don't think a pulley-system will work for me.
Unless it's easy to find studs in old ceilings? Perhaps some sort of
pedestal-type solution will work. Any suggestions?

ps: Sandy- The link for Hardy's brackets didn't work for me - is that the
correct address?

still one on the rear deck.  :)
