I have a similar situation. What I did in an old house is have 2 pulleys attached to the ceiling. I would sling either end of the kayak and then pull each end up incrementally until it was at the required height. The ropes were redirected to another pulley on the side of the garage where I tied them off to a cleat. If you want to put it on a shelf, you might have a hinged shelf and after the kayak is raised, raise the shelf and prop it in place and then lower the kayak unto it. This would require that the kayak be raised fairly close to the wall where the shelf is mounted. Christopher G.
