I have limited space in my garage so I store my PA 14 on it's side hanging from two straps connected to the wall and lift it about a foot off the floor with the bottom against a carpet attached to the wall. Works great and is out of the way.

So are the both of you laying your PA's right side up?

Right side up. The thing I like about the pool noodles is the even weight distribution. You don't get any areas that could potentially warp under its heavy weight.

When I first purchased my PA I thought I was going to be able to get away with just storing on the garage floor. Wellllllll, about a week later I got tired of moving it around so I decided to setup a hoist/winch system.
I purchased all of the parts at Home Deport, if I recall I paid under $100 for everything. None of the items that I purchased have a test load of less than 155lbs. ![]() ![]()

I forgot to add that I tested the load of each strap(bow & stern) with a spring scale. I setup the scale, lifted the kayak off the floor and the total weight measured roughly 60lbs per strap.
