There are about 7 kayaks hanging from my garage rafters, using this product: http://www.roperatchet.com/ (attach standard disclaimers, just a satisfied customer.) They are starting to become a common hardware-store item around here. One pulley near each end of the boat. Screw-eyes into the garage rafters. A rope (or webbing) sling for each pulley. Hoisting and lowering involves a number of back-and-forth trips between the pulleys, and for lowering, a stepstool to reach the rope release lever.
