Here you go Steve.  Pictures from my 2007 St. Patty's day party.


I usually have three 18 foot kayaks on my condo wall.  I also have one
kayak hanging in my garage and one white water boat on loan to my son
who is in Colorado... kayaking the Peuter.

It's easy to do... just go to the hardware store, buy some eye-anchers,
screw into the studs.  I then went to West marine and bought some
hardware:  pulleys and stainless steel clips, so I could use them in
other nautical pursuits.  They come in handy.  The stainless is a bit
overkill for the job of hanging on the wall.  And, you don't really need
the pulleys. 

My kayaks rest on braces and are secured by halyard line I can use
elsewhere.  If the braces ever give way, the halyard line is anchored
sound enough so the kayak remains suspended with no threat of falling.
